Less than 20 miles west of Lisbon, Portugal, Rotarians attending the 2013 RI Convention, June 23-26, can take in dramatic views of the Atlantic atop rocky cliffs, relax on soft sandy beaches, and channel their inner James Bond in a casino town formerly known as a playground for European royalty.

The seaside escapes of Estoril and Cascais are close enough for an easy day trip from Lisbon.  Cascais offers beaches, shopping, and restaurants, along with a rock formation known as Boca do Inferno, or Hell's Mouth, that is worth the 20-minute walk from town.  Estoril - quiet but popular resort area less that 2 miles from Cascais and accessible from there by boardwalk - is home to Europe's largest casino.
