After spending the previous day in Cascais, this was the only other full day we would be in Sintra and I had heard there were some beautiful beaches and a town right on the cliffs. This, I wanted to see! While Megan met up with a friend in Sintra to explore one of the palaces (see previous post), I decided to head to the coast for the day. I caught the bus there and found out the buses only run every couple hours so I planned out the one I had to catch back to make it in time for dinner with Megan and her friend, Marion.
The coast was beautiful! I started at Azenhas do Mar and walked along the cliffs to Praia das Maçãs, where I just laid in the sun and relaxed for a bit before catching the bus home. In typical Portuguese fashion, it was late, and I barely made it back in time for dinner (this is when no wifi is especially hard and I can’t text to say I’ll be late). But I made it! (See Megan’s previous post for more dinner details)
That Portuguese coast…amazingly beautiful. We have been to Praia das Maçãs (Beach of Apples) a few times too. Neste momento, eu tenho saudades para Portugal!
