Leave Lisbon behind and cross the Tagus River for a private journey into one of Portugal’s most captivating coastal regions.
This carefully curated 8-hour experience follows the changing landscapes of Lisbon’s South Bank — from the authentic streets of Costa da Caparica and its seemingly endless Atlantic beaches to a relaxed beachfront lunch at Fonte da Telha, before continuing into the dramatic scenery of the Arrábida Natural Park.
Throughout the day, the experience unfolds at your own pace. There is no rigid schedule and no need to rush from one attraction to another. Instead, your private guide adapts the journey to your interests, allowing time for spontaneous stops.
The afternoon reveals a different side of the Portuguese coast: the fishing traditions of Sesimbra, the limestone mountains of Arrábida, turquoise waters, hidden coves, and finally the remarkable Lapa de Santa Margarida — a secluded sanctuary carved into the cliffs overlooking the Atlantic.

1Costa da Caparica
Where Lisbon Meets the Atlantic Our journey begins in the historic center of Costa da Caparica, a seaside town shaped by generations, rather than simply heading directly to the beach, we take time to discover the local character of the town. Walk through its downtown streets, observe everyday life, and became one of Portugal’s most vibrant coastal destinations. From the town center, we continue towards the coastline, where the landscape opens onto an extraordinary stretch of golden sand. The beaches of Costa da Caparica extend for kilometers along the Atlantic.

2Fonte da Telha Beach
Beach Life & Lunch by the Ocean Following the coastline south, we arrive at Fonte da Telha, where the urban landscape gives way to dunes, pine forests, dramatic cliffs, and a more relaxed coastal atmosphere. Here, lunch is planned at Kailua, a beachfront restaurant where the setting is as much a part of the experience as the meal itself. After lunch, there is time to enjoy the beach. Take a walk along the shoreline, relax with a drink, or simply appreciate the ocean before we continue towards the mountains of Arrábida.

4Sesimbra
A Fishing Village by the Sea Our journey continues to Sesimbra, a historic fishing village embraced by the Arrábida mountains and the Atlantic Ocean. Fishing remains at the heart of local life, and the village retains a strong connection to the sea. Take a leisurely walk along the promenade, observe the fishing boats, discover the narrow streets near the waterfront, or simply enjoy the views across Sesimbra Bay.

5Portinho da Arrabida
A Hidden Mediterranean Landscape From Sesimbra, we continue through the spectacular coastal scenery towards Portinho da Arrábida. Sheltered by the surrounding mountains, this remarkable corner of Portugal is known for its calm, transparent waters and dramatic natural setting. Here, the journey becomes quieter and more intimate. It is a place to appreciate the natural beauty of Arrábida and enjoy one of the most memorable coastal landscapes in Portugal.

6Lapa de Santa Margarida
Arrábida’s Hidden Sanctuary Our final discovery is one of the most intriguing and atmospheric places in the region: the Lapa de Santa Margarida. Hidden inside a natural cave in the cliffs of Arrábida, this secluded sanctuary is reached by descending a staircase towards the ocean. The experience of entering the cave — with the sound of the sea and the Atlantic visible beyond the rocks — creates an extraordinary sense of place. Inside the cave are the remains of a small chapel dedicated to Saint Margaret, a reminder of the deep relationship between spirituality, nature, and the sea that has shaped this region for centuries. Away from the conventional tourist routes, the Lapa de Santa Margarida offers a memorable and atmospheric conclusion to our journey.
