Yes - Atlantic & Gulf of Cadiz

Others
Yes, although both the west and south coasts are on the Atlantic Ocean.

Gulf of Cadiz is over the border, off the coast of Spain, according to AutoRoute
Microsoft World Atlas and AutoRoute 2006
Florida lies on two coastlines - the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico.

According to the map provided by the poster below, Portugal lies on one coastline - the Atlantic Ocean. Even though Portugal has a south coast - if that coast faces the Atlantic - it is considered one coastline. The Gulf of Cadiz is considered an arm of the Atlantic Ocean - hence, the Atlantic Ocean.
Portugal coastline =1,793 km

Portugal has one coast line on the Atlantic, there is South and West and the West is far superiour to the South unless you like fish and chips and English beer and then the South is the best!
