Lisboa Region
Explore a cosmopolitan capital city, sprawl out on sun-drenched beaches and sample locally produced wines in this multifaceted region of Portugal.
Located right on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean, Portugal’s Lisboa Region is an enchanting destination featuring well-preserved medieval neighbourhoods, sandy beaches and an incredible wine region. Visit the capital city, Lisbon, to wander down cobblestoned streets. For something more low-key, unwind under a colourful beach umbrella and trek through undulating vineyard hills where picturesque windmills dot the landscape.
The capital of Portugal, Lisbon, is also the country’s largest city. It’s a major hub for business, finance and tourism. For a history fix, head to the Moorish-influenced district of Alfama. Go shopping or enjoy the capital’s nightlife in lively Bairro Alto near central Lisbon. Right in the heart of the city centre is Baixa, a bustling area with wide roads and plenty of al fresco dining terraces.
Lisbon is the only European capital with Atlantic beaches, and you can take advantage of them by bodyboarding or surfing right off the coast. Of course, you’re also free to simply stroll along the shoreline and marvel at the jagged rocks. Dig your toes into the sand at Praia de Carcavelos, one of the most popular beaches in the summer months. Stick around to watch the sunset as you dine on the terrace of a restaurant overlooking the ocean.
Although it is a short drive from the coastline, Lisboa’s wine region seems a world away. Take a tour of the rolling hills, which are carpeted in vines. Look for orchards and olive groves, which also contribute to the area’s agricultural production.
Fly into Lisbon’s international airport from destinations across Europe, Africa and North and South America. From there, take a bus or regional train to destinations on the outskirts of the Lisboa Region. Renting a car is possible, but not necessary unless you are planning on travelling far off the beaten path.
Within Lisbon, take the subway for the most efficient way of visiting the various neighbourhoods. For hilltop destinations, consider using the tram and historic funiculars.
Although Lisbon hogs the limelight, there is more to the Lisboa Region than just the capital. Be sure to make time for the golden beaches and interior vineyards.
