Descripción
Discover the wild coast of Guincho on a guided tour. Learn about the history of Portugal’s Atlantic soul, explore the 17th-century Forte da Cresmina, and see how the wind shapes the landscape.
Explore the wild coast of Guincho, where the Sintra mountains collapse into the Atlantic Ocean, shaping the land, the wind, and the people long before Portugal became a maritime nation.
Stop near the Forte da Cresmina, a 17th-century coastal fortress built to defend the kingdom from pirates and invasions after Portugal regained its independence in 1640. From this point, connect coastal defense systems, Moorish and Christian control of territory, and the importance of protecting the Atlantic door to Lisbon.
Learn how nature dictated life, architecture, and survival. Discover how the constant wind, moving dunes, and strong Atlantic currents created a land that was never fully conquered — only respected.
