Top Setubal District Bird Watching

Discover the marine life of Arrabida Natural Park, without disturbing their natural behavior, on this dolphin- and whale-watching tour that departs from Sesimbra. Rather than just watching the animals swim by, this tour is led by a marine biologist who explains the animals' behavioral patterns, eating habits, and social interactions. Finish your excursion just in time for lunch and enjoy the rest of the day to explore.

Visit beaches and sea caves you couldn’t reach any other way during a half-day trip to Arrábida Natural Park from Sesimbra. After departing from the port, head to one of Europe’s best beaches, Ribeiro do Cavalo, for a refreshing swim. Then, continue to other hidden beaches and choose whether to snorkel. Learn about coastal culture from your guides and stop to sample local liquor.

At Astromidnight, in the stunning Alentejo region of Portugal, an unforgettable private stargazing experience awaits. Guests explore the night sky through a 250mm telescope under the guidance of David Cruz, an astrophotographer recognized by both NASA and the European Space Agency (ESA). Each session is limited to just 4 adults for an intimate atmosphere, and children join for free. As a bonus, weather and timing permitting, David also captures a portrait of guests under the stars, a rare touch given his award-winning astrophotography background.
