Arrábida Mountains Portinho da Arrábida
Close to Lisbon there are charming places that you will undoubtedly fall in love with. The Arrábida Mountains is definitively one of them! Located between Setúbal and the wonderful area of Sesimbra, the Arrábida boasts 35 km of limestone mountains and a wonderful coastline.

It was declared a Natural Park in 1976 to protect the many species existent here and some of the areas can only be visited with official authorisation. Walking through these mountains is an unforgettable experience - dazzling views of the coast and the contact with nature make this a place where you will want to return to again and again.

Its coast has some of the best beaches in the region, for example Portinho da Arrábida pictured on the right and the Galapos beaches where visitors can enjoy the delights of sunshine and a true blue sea and try an excellent selection of fresh fish and shellfish.
