Tours
For those who are just passing through, or who
would like to sample the Costa Azul by taking a cycling adventure
along the shores of the Atlantic, stopping for lunch in a small
fisherman's cove, or quietly coasting down the sand-dune highways
in the Sado River Estuary, a daily tour will take you to where you
want to go. Take advantage of a three to four hour morning ride,
then browse the historic old-quarter of Setúbal, the bustling
port city, third largest in Portugal and just a half hour South
of Lisbon, located right in the heart of Costa Azul.
Wine Country Bike Tour
Surrounded by 3 regions DCO (Denomination of
Controlled Origin), discover the flavors that made the Peninsula
of Setúbal a prominent wine producing area for Phoenicians,
Greeks and Romans. Learn the secrets of Azeitão’s Cheese
production in its Farm-Museum, the backstage for a Pic-Nic where
you’ll taste the typical treats of these lands of artists
and artisans who will teach you the secular art of traditional tile
making.
