Cascais · Portugal

Praia da Duquesa scores 76/100 for swimming today at its best ability level (expert). The beach faces SE. A compact, sheltered town beach in a bay largely blocked from Atlantic swell by a nearby headland, keeping the sea flat and calm - suited to swimming, paddleboarding and sunbathing rather than surfing. Bylaws prohibit surf, kitesurf and windsurf, with fines of €55-550. At low tide a freshwater spring creates a shallow channel and quicksand patches, and rocks are exposed near shore. Lifeguards on duty 1 May-30 September, 9am-7pm.
