Cross the Tagus River to its south side over the 25th of April Bridge (Ponte 25 de Abril) and discover all of the natural wonders of this region. The Arrábida Mountain is a green wonder opened to the Atlantic with its Mediterranean look. On the way to this beautiful place (it has an appliance to become an UNESCO World Heritage Site), you'll pass by several important places, such as the statue of Cristo Rei (20 min approx.), a brother of the Corcovado in Rio de Janeiro.
Exiting the surrounding suburbs of Lisbon, you'll go to the Albufeira Lagoon (Lagoa de Albufeira) - (20 min approx.) - , one of the best bird watching spots in Portugal and a very popular beach for the Portuguese families. After stopping here, you'll head towards the Espichel Cape (30 / 45 min approx.), a very special place being known for it's beauty and for being a pilgrimage area since the 15th century with it's 18th century sanctuary of Our Lady of the Cape, who's believed to be appeared in this spot in 1434. This is a protected area and you can also see a dinosaur footprint track with millions of years old.

You can try some of local seafood dishes, such as the very famous "Mariscada de Sesimbra" (local seafood, lobster, crab, shrimp, etc.) or the "Caldeirada" (fish stew with local products).

After this, the city of Setúbal (pass by), one of the most important cities of Portugal (the 3rd biggest city in the country) with the estuary of it's river, the Sado, inhabited by more than 40 dolphins.
