This is definitely the beach that ticks all the boxes. It's perfect for families, groups of friends who want to play on the beach and surfers looking for a wave. Carcavelos beach stands out not only for the building that dominates it, the fortress of São Julião da Barra, but also for its vastness. Stretching over more than 1 km, it can accommodate both tourists and locals from Lisbon.
Situated between Lisbon and Cascais, Carcavelos is also the venue for sporting events, surfing competitions and even festivals, and takes around 20 minutes to get there from Lisbon.
