5. The name "Mouth of Hell" attributed to this place is due to the morphological analogy and the tremendous and frightening impact of the vacancies that are felt there. The characteristic that makes up the rock on the cliff is carbonated in nature. The erosion exerted by the action of rainwater that, containing dissolved carbon dioxide, causes the dissolution of carbonate. Through this process cavities and caves are formed inside the limestone. It is quite possible that the place was an old cave. With the abatement of the upper layers, the cave will have been destroyed, leaving a huge cavity in the open air.

About Cascais

Cascais is a former fishing village on the Atlantic coast west of Lisbon, with sheltered beaches, a seafront promenade and a royal past.

Cascais lies at the mouth of the Tagus estuary, roughly thirty kilometres west of Lisbon, and began as a fishing village. King Luís I made it the royal summer residence in 1870, and the aristocracy followed, building villas and palaces along the shore. The old centre has patterned stone pavements, a marina and small beaches tucked in the bay, and the Casa das Histórias Paula Rego is a museum of that painter's work in a red building.
