Taffi Says: A prato do dia (dish of the day) is always a good option for lunch. We rented an apartment and ate out very rarely here, but liked Copacabana. Good pastries as well.Careful with the appetizers, though: if you touch them all (olives, bread, cheese etc.) you can end up being...
Via Caparica: Family run restaurant
nhcram Says: This restaurant is nothing to look at and is on the main shopping street in Caparica BUT it caught our eye as the place was buzzing with seemingly local people. The waiter was about 18 years old and was funny friendly and very helpful.We came a couple of times and both time...
Taffi Says: TST buses take you to Lisbon and to neighbouring places such as Almada or Cacilhas. It is cheaper if you buy tickets in advance (e.g., from the kiosk on Praça da Liberdade nearest the main road, or from Papelaria Hlucha, near the bus stop for Lisbon).The bus will take you to...
stewartbel Says: From South bank of the Tagus river you can get to the center of Lisbon by ferry for just 0.74 EuroCents for one way.
Helpfulness
The little open carriage train that stops off at the beaches along the 10 kms of beach has about 21 stops. Stops 18 and 19 are for nudists and gays. So if you want a family day out I suggest you avoid these stops or you might see more than you bargained for. We got off at stop 21 in case you wondered!!!!

Helpfulness
Costa de Caparica is still very much a small fishing community, and when your timing is right, you may just catch the fishing boats coming in with their loadful of catch at the end of the day. We were in Costa one nice October afternoon when some fishermen were hauling in their net and put in a quite a mound of sardines mainly, with a squid now and then and some bigger fish appearing, right there on the sand. They were just about to put them in the regulation orange plastic containers, but were also selling to those who cared to get some very live, fat sardines for so cheap, the fishermen didn't even bother to weigh them. We got ourselves a couple of bags full, and had them grilled immediately. The leftovers we made into escabeche, which is to first fry them (in batter, preferably), and to marinade them after in vinegar, spices, and olive oil. It becomes even better, the longer it stays in this marinade.

veigapaula Says: Beaches not crowded at each beach extreme (São João or next to nude beach) My adolescent years, summer memories and good friends lost forever...
arasnosliw Says: Just to reiterate, the beaches closest to Lisbon are the most crowded. It's a chaotic, wild, smelly zoo full of tan-bodied people.
arasnosliw Says: ...or instead of partaking in sports, you can opt to just lie underneath a colorful beach umbrella. Plenty of obnoxious beach-vendors will be more than willing to sell you one!
arasnosliw Says: The less-populated beaches are wide enough to cater to a variety of beach sports. Football, volleyball, paddleball, you name it.
arasnosliw Says: this stretch of beach lacks all the hype of the northern beaches. the beach is WIDE, vast, and relatively clean.

South of Lisbon, this 30 kilometer stretch of beach lines the Setúbal Peninsula. The stretch is broken up into several beaches, and the northern ones are always the most crowded due to their proximity...
Long sandy beaches backed by sand dunes makes this a popular place for Lisboetas who come here to enjoy the seafood, swim and sunbathe. A railway, with open carriages runs for 10kilometers along the...
Costa de Caparica has something that attracts. I does not look that special at first sight, but I spent three months here and became rather attached to it. The beaches are very nice; the town looks a...
