The Cascais Marina opened in 1999 and is an attraction for both residents and tourists; it is across the road from the Castro Guimarães Museum. The marina has moorings for 638 boats up to 36 metres and a sailing school. It stages international events such as the 2007 ISAF Sailing World Championship and curious dolphins visit periodically. Facilities include a large underground car park, a shopping centre and many restaurants, cafes, and bars. Nicolau Coelho, the first captain of Vasco da Gama’s navy to arrive in India, landed at Cascais Bay to give news of this discovery to the King.
