The Setubal Peninsula offers its visitors the best of both worlds. A beautiful coastline with an emphasis on the Arrabida mountains and beaches painted in light shades of translucent blue, passing by the wineries of Palmela, Azeitão and Setubal where superior quality wines are produced.
Start your day by crossing the April 25 Bridge towards the south bank of the Tagus River. Visit Sesimbra with its beautiful bay and one of the main fishing ports in Portugal. Discover the Castle of Sesimbra and end your visit with a tasting of its most typical sweet: Farinha Torrada.
Continue along the peaks of Arrabida Mountain, which gives the name to the Arrabida Natural Park, and upon arrival in Setubal visit the Livramento Market where fresh products from the sea and land are sold from Tuesday to Sunday.
A wine and Azeitão cheese tasting will be waiting for you in a quiet environment at Mourisca Tide Mill in the Sado Estuary Nature Reserve. On your return to Lisbon cross the Vasco da Gama Bridge, one of the longest bridges in the world.
