Location
About the surrounding area of Palmera RelaxCosta da Caparica is located just 20 minutes away from Palmera Relax, offering guests the prime opportunity to explore a wealth of iconic landmarks for themselves. One of the most prestigious attractions within this region is Belem Tower, an archaic medieval defence tower that can be found just over 30 minutes away from the villa. This town symbolises the entrance of Lisbon and has greeted weary travellers for generations. Crafted from robust limestone and standing at 30 metres tall, this tower also depicts a staggering Portuguese Manueline style to further enhance its royal legacy. Guests are encouraged to take a trip to the peak of the tower and bask in the vibrant panoramic views that sit below.
Alongside its wondrous tourist attractions, this region is also commended for its transformative food industry. Since it is surrounded by sapphire blue water, fresh seafood takes pride in many menus throughout the area. Arroz de Marisco, also known as Seafood Rice, is one of the area’s most popular dishes and blends a wealth of shellfish, such as prawns and clams, with a plethora of expertly cooked rice. Many previous guests have compared it to a signature paella but with a much richer brine flavour. This dish can be found in a variety of restaurants along the seafront, allowing guests to indulge in a mouth-watering meal as they watch the quaint fishing boats flat across the calm water.
The Sanctuary of Christ the King is one of the most pivotal landmarks in the entirety of Portugal and works to celebrate those who bravely sacrificed their lives during the tumultuous events of World War II. It pulls upon a range of motifs seen in the prolific Christ the Redeemer statue seen in Rio de Janeiro. From the top of the looming monument, guests will be able to gain an unobstructed view of the immense Ponte 25 de Abril Bridge. Thus, this is a great landmark to visit if you are looking to gain a better understanding of Portugal’s roots from a much more intimate perspective. The Sanctuary of Christ the King can be found just under half an hour away from Palmera Relax.

THE REGION
Only 25 km from Lisbon, located in a protected pine woodland and close to the coastal town of Caparica, Aroeira is a unique estate comprising two golf courses. Aroeira offers golfers the perfect combination of a championship course set amidst exuberant natural surroundings.
The closest beach from Aroeira is Fonte de Telha. It is a pretty good spot for Surfers, and you will also find several choices of beach bars and restaurants to go to.

ABOUT THE LISBON COAST
The Lisbon Coast is a sensational stretch of golden beaches, wave-lashed cliffs and vibrant seaside towns – but there's more to the Atlantic coastline than that. Delve beneath the surface to discover hidden coves, family-owned seafood restaurants and pristine natural parks.
The coast around Lisbon provides an easy, breezy escape from the capital, whose proximity has made it the stomping ground of kings for the last 1,000 years. In summer, Lisboistas stream into elegant Comporta and Cascais to escape the heat of the city; year-round, surfers hang loose on the coast, waiting for the rollers to crash down on the sand.
But while you're enjoying one of our fantastic villas in Lisbon Coast, you may well want to take some time out from all that sun worship to explore everything else the region has to offer – so we've put together this handy travel guide to give you a little help and inspiration!
