Farol Museu de Santa Marta
Museum
Directions

Come discover a real working lighthouse right here in Cascais, where the story of Portugal's maritime history comes to life. You can wander through the old keepers' cottages, now a small museum, and see the giant lenses that once lit the way for sailors. The real treat, though, is the easy climb up the blue-and-white striped tower. From the top, you'll get the most incredible panoramic views of the town and the vast Atlantic – it's a view you won't soon forget.
