A fish house on the cliff edge
Mar do Inferno is at the Boca do Inferno, 2 km from the centre of Cascais, right above the sea. It has been run for 48 years by the family of Maria de Lourdes Tirano with her two sons and a team of about fifty people. It has a wide terrace over the rocks and rooms with picture windows: from almost any table you can watch the waves break.
What to order
The cooking is on the grill. Fresh fish and shellfish are the main thing and are chosen from the display case; there are also some meats. Fish and shellfish are priced by weight, so ask before ordering a large piece. The wine list is broad and Portuguese.
Opening hours, booking and getting there
It is open every day from 12:30 to 22:30 except Wednesday. Book by phone or by email ([email protected]). If you walk from the centre, it is about 25 minutes along the coastal path; by car there is room to park on the Guincho road, next to the viewpoint, although in summer it fills up.
What to order: the grilled fish of the day, which you choose from the display case, and some shellfish to start.
