Guincho Beach

Praia do Guincho is one of the finest beaches of the Lisbon region, that combines intense surfing with dramatic scenery. Guincho is situated on the western edge of the Serra da Sintra National Park and this designation has protected the remote and wild ambience of the beach from tourist development.
