Launch version: this tour is still being prepared. Check back soon.
Sesimbra, town of the sea
From the fortress to the harbour: Rome under the avenue, the Christ who came from the sea, the wrecked frigate, the market that was a factory and the lighthouse.
Caves and wild beaches
Listen to the coast as you sail: cliffs, roadless beaches, the Inferno cave. Aboard our partner's boat.
Cape Espichel: footprints, legend and lighthouse
Dinosaur tracks, the legend of the mule that climbed the cliff, the sanctuary and the lighthouse at the end of the world.
Aguncheiras and the natural pools
The place everyone talks about and almost nobody can find. Good weather and proper shoes only.
What this is
Sesimbra is a fishing town tucked into a bay, with a limestone ridge falling into the sea and a wild coast you can only see by boat. We made five audio tours so you can explore it on your own, at your own pace: the town, the castle, Cape Espichel, the natural pools of Aguncheiras and the coast seen from the water.
They're free and GPS-guided. Pick a tour, it opens right in your phone's browser — nothing to install —, allow location, and the audio plays at each stop. Keep your screen on during the tour. Written by locals, in six languages.
