Driving along the Estrada da Escarpa road, 300 metres above the sea, leads to this beautiful city near Lisbon in Portugal. Its beaches with fine, white sand and emerald waters are the ideal place to forget all about stress.
A great place to disconnect
Sierra de Arrábida National Park is home to beaches and mountains with thick vegetation. A beautiful place to combine the sea and hiking. If you’re thinking of visiting Setúbal, we recommend a walk along the lively Luisa Todi Avenue and a visit to the Convent of Jesus. Visiting the Sao Filipe Fort and Palmela Castle are also experiences you must not miss. The Franciscan Convent of Arrábida produces the region’s famous muscat and the shepherds make a delicious creamy cheese. Quinta da Bacalhoa is a Renaissance palace surrounded by vineyards and gardens. From the port of Setúbal, there is a ferry that takes just a few minutes to get to the Troia peninsula, an environmental paradise with kilometres of beaches, dunes and vegetation.
