Lisbon
The capital of Portugal, this striking city has much to offer with numerous flights from the UK daily and a thriving tourist industry.
Lisbon itself, with a population of around 1 million, is welcoming, cosmopolitan, fun, and fast. With a quick train ride or short drive, you can reach the rocky Atlantic coast, the wooded delights of Sintra, and a countryside sheltering luxurious villas and centuries-old palaces.
Twenty minutes by train will take you to Cascais, a lovely old fishing town. South of Lisbon are more sandy beaches and seaside villages, and lagoons to explore in the Tagus and Sado river estuaries. Many of these areas are protected – and flourishing.
