Public bus 403 from Sintra to Cascais, via Cabo da Roca
Lisbon region
May 2, 2015

Travel information (2015):
There are two bus services which connect Sintra to Cascais, service number 403 and 417. Cascais bus 417 is the faster route, taking only 30 minutes to travel to Sintra. Bus 403 is much slower requiring a whole hour but the service follows a much more scenic and coastal route. The single bus ticket, when purchased from the driver, costs €4.05.
One of the stops along the 403 bus route is the Cabo da Roca. This headland is the most westerly point of mainland Europe and was thought to be the end of the known world in the 14th century. The region is of dramatic landscapes, 150m high cliffs fall away to raging seas and the entire region is buffeted by strong winds. Cabo da Roca is a beautiful place to watch sunset but unfortunately the bus times do not allow for this and there is only an hourly service.
