On the way to Lisbon is Cristo Rei, an imposing stone figure of Christ worth a visit for the breathtaking view over the Tagus to the city. | | Beaches The beautiful sandy beach of Fonte da Telha is a 5 minute drive away, and is part of the famous Costa da Caparica, a 30km coastal area of sandy beaches which extends as far as Cabo Espichel. For several kilometres the beaches are all connected, offering a wide variety of ambiance and style. Enjoy lovely walks by the sea for several kilometres of uninterrupted sand. The majority of these beaches has lifeguards during the summer months, car parking, restaurants and bars. A small open, tourist train connects the many beaches along a 10km stretch of the Caparica coast during the summer. Apart from Caparica... 10km away is one of the most beautiful beaches in Portugal, ‘Portinho de Arrabida’. A sheltered cove of white sand with pine trees as a backdrop, its quiet crystal clear waters are perfect for swimming, particularly for children, and are popular with divers for their colourful underwater life. Other sandy coves lie at the foot of the limestone cliffs. Praia da Figuerinha offers sport fishing, windsurfing and sailing, and has vast sand banks at low tide. Water sports For diving, Portinho beach has some of the most interesting diving in Portugal with its grottos and abundant marine life. Sailing, windsurfing, canoeing and rowing can all be enjoyed in this safe bay. Gastronomy and wine tasting The region is famed for its gastronomy. Fresh grilled fish is an inexpensive delight. Five formal wine routes have been devised in the Setubal peninsula by the ‘Rota de Vinhos’ association, combining wine tasting with sightseeing, arts and nature. Arrabida National Park The nearby Park was established to protect the beautiful landscape and rich variety of wildlife, including eagles, wildcats and badgers. The mountains are ideal for walks, and organized excursions can be arranged with the local nature tour companies. In the National Park, mountain biking, fauna tours, and bird watching are organised. Orienteering, cycling tours, riding and aerial sports are available and provide new experiences for beginners and experienced alike.
