Cascais Marina has a vocation for staging major International Events and is the ideal setting for welcoming and catering for the leisure
and comfort of everyone who drops by.
In the recent past it hosted major races like ISAF Sailing
World Championship, the European 49ers Championship, the
QuebraMar Regatta, Cowes-Cascais, Portugal Sailing
Tour-de-France, Portugal Match Cup, His Majesty King Juan Carlos
I’s Trophy including many other competitions which have helped to
promote the name of Cascais Marina nationally and internationally.
The major competitions have not only brought together ocean sailors
at the Marina but also many crowned heads of old Europe who
are also lovers of the sea and good winds as is the case of King Juan
Carlos of Spain, Constantine of Greece and Harold of Norway.
Skippers like Russell Cutts from New Zealand, the Australian
Peter
Gilmour, Jesper Radich of Denmark, Geoffrey Meek of South
Africa, Bertrand Pacé of France, Peter Holmberg of the Team
Alinghi, Ed Baird an American from Team Musto, Staffan Linderg
from Finland, Christopher Law from Great Britain as well as the
well-known Chris Dickson are just some of the ocean sailors
who have already raced regatta in the waters of Cascais.
