The Cove

Perhaps one of the lesser-known coves of the Natural Park of Sintra-Cascais! Known as Old Guincho, is undoubtedly one of my favorite places, because of its isolation, the long walk to reach it, but mainly because it is extremely photogenic!

In this photo taken above the beach, before the final descent, we have a perspective of the whole cove and in the background we can even see the Guincho beach and Cape Raso! Although the conditions were not ideal for what I like to do, I was quite pleased with the end result!

Talvez seja uma das enseadas menos conhecidas do Parque Natural de Sintra-Cascais! Conhecida como Guincho Velho é sem dúvida um dos meus locais favoritos, por ser isolada, por obrigar a uma longa caminhada, mas principalmente por ser extremamente fotogénica!

Nesta foto, tirada sobre a praia, mesmo antes da descida final, temos uma perspectiva de toda a enseada e ao fundo consegue-se ainda ver a praia do guincho e o cabo Raso! Apesar de as condições não serem as ideais para o que gosto de fazer, fiquei bastante satisfeito com o resultado final!

Quantos êxtases, quantas madrugadas Em teu colo marítimo! ” Vinicius…
