Tamariz Beach - by 천재미소녀 on Google



Description
Tamariz Beach is the main stretch of sand in the seaside resort town of Estoril which is known for its casino, luxury hotels as well as its tennis tournament and its motorsport circuit. The golden sand beach is about 200m long and flanked by the Forte da Cruz on its eastern side.
Access & Transport
Estoril is 25km west of Lisbon and can be reached by train (heading towards Cascais) leaving from Lisbon's Santos or Cais do Sodre stations (35mins ride). Cascais is a short 2km further west, 3mins on the train. The beach is just off the town's train station, about 600m from the Casino.
Instructions & Recommendations
Do not forget your sun-protective equipment and take note that Portuguese waters are known to be cold.
Environmental & Social
The coastline in this area is over-developed but wastewater management seems to be implemented correctly.
Conclusion
Tamariz beach is a good option as a day trip from Lisbon and for those looking to explore the area around Cascais. Nothing exceptional but enjoyable nonetheless
