GT Carcavelos Beach
Carcavelos
is a parish in the Portuguese municipality of Cascais, about 12 km
west of Lisbon. It has one of the best beaches in the Estoril
coast. The village used to be known for the Carcavelos wine, but
since the wine production is nowadays reduced, Carcavelos is better
known among surfers because of the good surfing condition of the
Carcavelos beach. Body surfing is also becoming very popular,
although with a different approach from the practised in The Wedge
in Newport Beach, California.
Carcavelos
also marks the mouth of the Tagus River. To the east side of the
Carcavelos beach there is a huge fortification named Forte de São
Julião da Barra. It used to protect the Tagus river entrance from
enemy ships. Currently it is used as the official summer residence
of the Ministry of Defence.
