Editor's Letter

August, and the coast comes into its own.

In August, Cascais reveals its most authentic rhythm. The coast keeps its calendar: Atlantic Sunsets at Forte da Barra, the bay alive during Festas do Mar, and the Cascais Vela regattas.

This is not a holiday town that empties at the end of summer. It is a place shaped by the people who call it home, where summer is simply part of everyday life. Six dates to save, a table by the sea, and the latest update from the site.
