Portugal highlights: natural beauty, peaceful beaches, lively towns

Portugal’s mountainous terrain makes it a photogenic and exciting place to explore. It’s full of surprises; at one turn you’ll find rugged cliffs and at the next, miles upon miles of unspoilt terrain. Portugal cruises are for those who appreciate wild and natural beauty.

Portugal also has over 800km of coast, offering plenty of beach spots - both popular and peaceful - to soak up the rays. Kayaking, swimming and dolphin-watching are yours to enjoy, as are hiking and cycling in the countryside.

You’ll love the captivating capital, Lisbon, where monasteries, museums and cathedrals are all within walking distance of each other. Lisbon is one of those destinations where it is a pleasure just to wander. The colourful, winding lanes of Lisbon’s backstreets will spark your imagination – and fill your camera with memories!
