Even at the beginning of March the weather was great &#8211; we spent Saturday basking in the sun on the nearby beach in Estoril (much prettier than the one in Cascais, right next to it). Another daytrip was to Sintra &#8211; trains are very cheap, and the traditional little cakes alone worth the journey, not to speak of the cute town and impressive castles.
