Amazing! We went for a day's surfing with a couple of locals we met in the bar and had such a great day out! I had no idea there were even beaches so close to the city!

Lisbon is the perfect place to go for a couple of days' cultural holiday followed by some sunbathing for another couple. This beach is amazing, close to Lisbon, great surf, what more could you need?

About a 40 minute drive from the centre of Lisbon, we used a hire car

My husband took me here for the day and it was stunning. The convent and chapel are the oldest buildings in Portugal which is incredible and then we spent a lovely afternoon on the beach there too. Defninitely worh escaping the city for a day and enjoy it out in the countryside.

Just under 60km south of Lisbon, good roads so it should only take about an hour, depending on time taken to leave the city

I was visiting friends in Lisbon and was totally surprised when they said did I want to go surfing! And sure enough, a short drive away was this great beach with perfect waves rolling in off the point! Lisbon really does seem to have it all.

Head out on the IC15/A5 and it's a short way from the end of the motorway
