KAYAK TOUR AND JEEP TOUR THROUGH THE ARRÁBIDA MOUNTAINS
A day of adventure in the heart of the Arrábida Natural Park combining a Kayak experience and a jeep tour.
The adventure begins in a kayak, passing through caves and secret coves that are only accessible from the sea. As you sail across the Atlantic Ocean you will visit secret beaches and the karst formation of Caverna do Frade. Back in Sesimbra, we will stop at the iconic Ribeira do Cavalo beach. Here you can enjoy a snack and take a dip in the transparent waters surrounded by limestone rock formations – perfect for photographing and immortalizing your experience.
Afterwards, you will embark on a jeep tour through the heart of Serra da Arrábida, with stops at several viewpoints such as Sesimbra Castle; Alto do Jaspe, which offers unique views of Serra do Risco; Bad Roman; Portinho da Arrábida; I believe in the beach; Arrábida Convent and North viewpoints (view of Lisbon and the Tagus estuary) and South viewpoint (view of the beaches of Tróia and Arrábida).
