Blue Coast

Blue Coast: scenic beaches, Serra da Arrábida, historic villages, and famed Moscatel wines

Blue Coast

Where the Sea embraces the Land.

The Blue Coast starts at the River Tagus Estuary, in the Setúbal Peninsula. Benefiting from the sea proximity, it is a coast that extends over long white and thin sandy beaches, for hundreds of kilometers, with soft shades of a clear blue sea.

The mountains are also charming, outlining the Serra da Arrábida, an area of primitive Mediterranean vegetation.

Life here, in the picturesque coastal villages, goes at a calmer pace. Lusitanian historical place as is witnessed by the castles, fortresses, and churches. A region that, in those remote times, was chosen by the Portuguese bourgeoisie and nobility.

It is also a strong traditional wine region, where superior quality wines are produced, with floral aromas and soft flavors, the most famous, the Moscatel de Setúbal.

A coast full of charm to be discovered, with beaches, estuaries, mountains, and inland plains.

A very special region that witnesses the Portuguese way of living the sea.
