Beautiful views here...besides visiting the sanctuary or the Lagosteiros beach (very difficult access) don't miss the dinosaur footprints and tail tracks, not far away from there...try to visit on a clear not too windy day... Trekking around the Cape 😜 is definitely worth the effort of climbing up and down 😉. You will discover new amazing views with lots of history behind if you are in to it. Dinosaurs 🦕🦖🦖 set their tracks n footprints in this area over 150 million years ago......

A dazzling landscape in the southwestern tip of Setúbal Peninsula with towering cliffs continuously showered by the Atlantic. Attractions in Cabo Espichel, Sesimbra: an old monastery (closed), the lagosteiros dinosaur footprints, the Pedra da Mua dinosaur tracks, the Sanctuary of Nossa Senhora do Cabo and the pilgrims accommodation, the house of Tapers, Chapple of Ermida da Memória, hiking, boat tours... the raw nature and, of course,...

Do alto das falésias do cabo Espichel, a pequena distância do farol, está o santuário do cabo Espichel, também conhecido por santuário da pedra da Mua, templo de certa grandeza, guarda a imagem da sua padroeira que se venerava na ermida à beira da rocha que segundo a tradição apareceu na pedra da Mua em torno da qual se desenvolveu um culto persistente outrora muito popular. Em frente tem um vasto terreiro e casas com arcadas dos lados, onde outrora no seu piso inferior existiam lojas, e o piso superior destinado ao alojamento dos peregrinos, assim como uma casa de água e um aqueduto. Hoje este local quase fantasmático, encontra-se quase totalmente abandonado, resta dele a igreja, onde ainda se realizam missas, todo o resto está fechado e uma grande parte dotado à ruina. É triste ver a falta de sensibilidade das autarquias deixarem um património histórico chegar a este ponto de degradação. Embora o visitante fique um pouco desapontado com o que vê, vale sempre a pena visitar este lugar mágico e deslumbrar-se com a soberba paisagem onde há muitos milhões de anos por aqui deambulavam dinossauros. Se a fome apertar, ou a sede, ou apenas a gulodice, o visitante tem ao seu dispor duas roulottes e um café snack – bar que oferece refeições quentes e frias,...

If you’re heading to Cabo Espichel, make sure to catch the sunset. The rugged cliffs and vast ocean create a stunning backdrop as the sun sinks below the horizon. It’s one of those hidden gems where the beauty of nature takes center stage, offering a peaceful escape from the usual tourist spots. Trust me, the view here is unforgettable and worth every moment. #CaboEspichel #SunsetViews #HiddenGems #LisbonDayTrips
