The stops
Travel time, priorities and our practical take.
01
Pena National Palace and park with Lunch
Must do
Entry at 9:30, €26, two or three hours between palace and park.
Our take
This is the morning visit. We suggest taking the local carriages to go the palace due to the long queue at the bus station.
02
Monserrate
Must do
Entry at 14:00, €12, about one hour.
Our take
Start at 14:00, so you can leave for the cape around 16:00.
03
Cabo da Roca
Must do
Go back to the hotel with a taxi to take the car. Aim to arrive at around 17:00.
Our take
The most southwestern point of the European continent. The beach below is extra but it's worth it waiting for the sunset.
04
Praia da Ursa
Optional
A walk of about 30 minutes.
Our take
Worth it, but it eats the sunset. If you are late, stay at the cape.
