Lisbon city does not have a beach, but Lisbon Metropolitan Area does have beaches. Lisbon Metropolitan Area is a territorial zone that includes 18 municipalities (being one of them the Lisbon city municipality). This means that the urban area of Lisbon extends beyond the administrative city limits. When in the city of Lisbon you are 10/15 minutes by car from a beach, outside the city administrative area, but inside its Metropolitan Area. Some of the closest beach spots are in Cascais, Sintra, Setúbal or Almada (Costa da Caparica) Municipalities as i said 10/15 minutes by car. Sintra is an amazing place with lots of castles and lush vegetation and romantic spots and have some of the most if not the most beautiful beaches in the Lisbon Area.

There are so many popular places to visit in Portugal depending on what you want to experience and considering whether you want to explore the mainland or its 2 major group of islands. You can enter Portugal by flight into Porto, Lisbon or Faro on the mainland and Lisbon would be most popular overall as the largest city of the mainland. The city of Lisbon has a lot of entertainment such as musicals, sporting events and a fair amount of historic sites. The Castle of Saint George is very interesting. Porto is very interesting for its character where the old old city leads down to the famous Rio Douro, shops & great food along the river and its incredible bridges. Faro in the Algarve has a different feel once again. It is a hub to a nature reserve in the ocean and to several beach vacation areas. However within Faro, there are many historic interests, shows, sports. These are the largest places that people first arrive too and have much to offer. If you take the time to read up on Portugal though, you will be amazed at what features are hidden around you or within the smaller communities for all ages and interests.
