How to get there

By Bus

The Costa da Caparica Bus service is operated by Transportes Sul do Tejo (TST) and there are two direct services from Lisbon: Service 161 and 153. Bus 161 is the best option with a more regular service and a departure every 30 minutes between 8:00 and 18:00. Costa da Caparica bus 161 departs from Praça do Areeiro in Lisbon and this departure is close to the Areeiro Metro Station and is on the green metro line. Service 153 departs from Praça de Espanha, which is served by the blue metro line and the Praça de Espanha Metro Station. Neither of the departure locations are from regular bus stations, but more a conglomeration of many bus stops.

This makes identify where the bus will depart from a little tricky especially at Praça do Areeiro, which is a large junction of Lisbon with many streets. Costa da Caparica bus station is east of the main town center and is within walking distance of the beach. Then you stop at Pragal, where you catch a taxi to “Manama Camp – Rua de António Flores nº 211C – Charneca da Caparica” For the return journey both services (153 and 161) are equally as convenient.

A different option to travel to Costa da Caparica is by a combined ferry and bus journey. The ferry departs from Cais do Sodré ferry, train and metro station (last stop on the green line) and takes 15 minutes to reach Cacilhas ferry terminal where you can catch a taxi to “Manama Camp – Rua de António Flores nº 211C – Charneca da Caparica”. This ferry journey provides fantastic views of historic Lisbon and the suspension bridge. From the Cacilhas ferry terminal.

Getting around

All the beaches benefit from lively bars and restaurants along the beachfront, as well as ice cream parlours and shops for toys and provisions. You can pick from Praia de Santo António de Caparica, Praia do C.D.S and Praia Nova, while the stand outs are Praia do Tarquínio-Paraíso, Praia do Dragão Vermelho and São João da Caparica, which all fly the Blue Flag. Costa da Caparica’s resort beaches are great because there’s always something going on and lifeguards are on patrol in summer. But if you want to check out the less built-up beaches you can hop on the Transpraia tramway, which runs beside the ocean and makes 19 stops, each at a different beach. As you push out from the main resort the shoreline gets broader and there are fewer signs
