Museu do Mar Rei Dom Carlos I

A Hidden Gem in Cascais for a rainy day with Kids. We had no idea this museum even existed, but thankfully, another museum recommended we pop over, and we’re so glad we did! It’s a great spot for kids, with plenty to keep them engaged. The model sharks and dolphins were a big hit, and my kids especially loved the interactive room with ocean sounds and the sea table. A lovely little museum, definitely worth a visit if you’re in Cascais.

Even though I'm not that person who loves the sea that much (at least not that much as I love the mountains), it's been a really interesting visit here in the Museu do Mar. Appropriate for kids and adults, in the best case for the whole family.

Well done Portuguese Maritime and Marine Life history with easy to read signs in English too. Nice original artifacts of historical boats and equipment.

A small museum with some interesting exhibits. Appreciate the English descriptions too. Would be even better if some of the knowledge/exhibits, i.e. marine biology history, were made more interesting/interactive.

The museum is bigger than expected. Nice place to chill after hot weather.

This is a small museum located in Cascais that brings a bit of the Cascais’ maritime history with costumes, tools, nets and boats. Hours: 10am-6pm Tue-Sun, free 1st Sun of month Price: adult/child €3/free

Worth it’s cost. Personally I liked it here, besides it’s totally family friendly. The museum isn’t that big, but you can totally spend about an hour here enjoying all the mammals around. :) Appreciate information in English they have here. Of course, I’d like to see more exclusive stuff regarding the royal family, hope they will add some new items in the future.

Very interesting place about Portuguese Sea and Naval history
