Quinten Quist: Awesome huuuuge beach with nice sand, rocks, cliffs and nice waves. They've rebuilt the parking lots, paths to the beach and viewpoints in early 2016(?). Saw only one tiny kiosk (closed May 2016).
Andrea Barrezueta: Take the elevator down to one of the best beaches I've been to. Water is warmer than other beaches even in July. Not too busy since it's hard to find. Well worth it tho
Marco Nunes: Excelente praia com uma beleza natural lindíssima. Aconselho levar calçado para trail e as coisas da praia em mochila. O caminho difícil mas vale a pena. No final, trazer todo o lixo, sff.
Boris Biba: Very nice place. Just 30 minutes from Cabo da Roca. Use the left walkway. Those that are going to the right corner of the beach looks easier but are quite risky in the lower part.
Emilia Allonso: Kayak rental is the best wait to see the caves; very easy as the sea os very calm and you can take your time and enjoy it the way you want (15€/person)
The Ritz-Carlton: Nestled between cliffs whimsically carved by the sea, Praia da Adraga, is a beautiful place for a walk by the ocean. It is a preserved environment - rocks, caves and tunnels.
The Ritz-Carlton: A surfer's paradise - and previous world championship surfing spot - Praia do Guincho offers up tremendous swells, but the strong undertow can be dangerous for swimmers and novice surfers.
Gabi Bulumac: Beautiful square and a city slight, the monument has a bronze statue of the Marquess on the top, with a lion - symbol of power - by his side ☝️

João Santos: Nice viewing point with a beer garden, ideal for a drink with a wonderful view over Lisbon. Must see for tourists, mandatory occasional visit for locals. Free, except for drinks at the beer garden.

Liva: Great POV and little known too. It’s the “back” of the city that you get to see, not the traditional vista. Pick a coffee or OJ at the shack and sit on the benches.
Abraham Lara: If you're visiting Lisbon, rent a car and after visiting Sintra, drive to the west, to this small village on the Atlantic coast. You will enjoy one of the best sunset in the area.

Maria Zhdanova: 5 евро стоит подьем на лифте. Можно подняться на пару улиц вверх и проити на площадку бесплатно со стороны арочного храма. Из лифта все равно никакого вида нет.

Gabi Bulumac: The monument is very beautiful and full of meaning relating to Portugal's history and discoveries.It's a great place to get some pictures ;)
Simone de Graaf: Cabo de São Vicente, situated near Sagres, is the most south-western point of the European continent. The lighthouse is very nice and you can get your "Letzte Bratwurst vor Amerika" over there!

J Kofler: Most south-west point of Europe, in my opinion more beautiful than the westernmost point of Europe that is also in Portugal, of course. Less people (at least off season). Bring a jacket (wind!).
Quinten Quist: Really beautiful beach with fine nearly white sand, caves, regular waves for surf-newbies, a bar (was closed in May), a lot of space and sooo peaceful. Worth a visit and walking down the stairs.
