Ian Fleming's inspiration for Casino Royale
Europe's largest casino by floor area, Estoril has hosted exiled kings, wartime spies and the young Ian Fleming. Today it pairs classical gaming with nightly cabaret.
Alongside the tables, the complex includes a shopping arcade, an art gallery and a theatre hosting regular live shows.
The casino sits at the top of the Estoril gardens, a short stroll from the seafront promenade.
