What You’ll Experience

Avenida da Liberdade (Pass By)

The meeting point, at Avenida da Liberdade 9, in front of the Armani Exchange store

Ponte 25 de Abril (Pass By)

You'll cross the April 25th Bridge (a lookalike of the Golden Gate Bridge), a giant and scenic suspension bridge that connects the north and south sides of Lisbon. It was renamed after the revolution day (April 25th) that finished the Salazar dictatorship in 1974.

Praia da Lagoa de Albufeira (Pass By)

The Albufeira Lagoon is a protected area on the western side of the Setúbal Peninsula. It’s a combination of pine trees, beautiful beaches, small lagoons (the deepest in Portugal), and birdwatching. It’s a popular weekend beach destination for locals and famous for water sports.
1

Cabo Espichel

You'll stop and enjoy the impressive Espichel Cape (Cabo Espichel). This spot is the westernmost point of the Sesimbra coast, where we can see frighteningly tall cliffs. There are a few buildings here, mainly built in the seventeen hundreds: a church flanked by two arms of pilgrims’ lodges, a lighthouse, a chapel, and an aqueduct. Espichel Cape was a very important place for pilgrims.
30 minutesAdmission Ticket Free
2

Castelo de Sesimbra

You'll visit the Sesimbra Castle (Castelo de Sesimbra), an old Moorish castle (9th century) rising 200m above sea level. It’s impressively well preserved, and from here we can enjoy unique views over the Atlantic and the Sesimbra Bay. Inside there are two permanent exhibits on its history, a heritage interpretation center, a church, and an old cemetery.
30 minutesAdmission Ticket Free
3

Fortaleza de Santiago

At the center of Sesimbra, you can explore Santiago Fortress (Fortaleza de Santiago) that was part of Portugal’s coastal defenses and a summertime retreat of Portuguese kings.
15 minutesAdmission Ticket Free
4

Praia da California

Enjoy the California beach, and its fine sands and turquoise waters.
1 hour 30 minutesAdmission Ticket Free
5

Sesimbra

You'll stop and explore Sesimbra, a small Atlantic fishing village. Sesimbra is about a bay surrounded by tall cliffs, turquoise waters, fine sands, and excellent seafood (it’s all uniformly delicious). At the downtown, we'll find narrow lanes lined with terracotta-roofed houses and a palm-fringed promenade.
1 hour 30 minutesAdmission Ticket Free
6

Parque Natural da Arrabida

You'll explore the Arrabida Mountain, a famous protected area (Arrabida Natural Park) with many unique Mediterranean plants (olives, pistachios, strawberries, lavender, thyme, and chamomile). We will drive along the Atlantic coast, stop several times, and enjoy remarkable and breathtaking views with amazing beaches and azure waters.
1 hourAdmission Ticket Free
7

Convento da Arrabida

You can take a look at Convento da Arrabida (Arrábida Monastery). This building was founded in 1542 by Friar Martinho de Santa Maria, a Castilian Franciscan. It’s a surprising construction that is completely isolated in the mountain.
10 minutesAdmission Ticket Free
8

Quinta do Alcube

You'll stop and visit the Quinta de Alcube. It's a family property founded in the 15th century in the center of Arrabida's Natural Park. It is today an iconic local winery and a paradise for wine lovers. You’ll visit the vineyards, do wine tasting, and learn about this familiar winery.
