May 7, 2026, Cacilhas Waterfront and Ferry Terminal

• Go for a drink and a snack at Atira-te ao Rio. Very quiet atmosphere, especially at sunset. • Do the pedestrian route to the Boca do Vento elevator and go up to the viewpoint. You have an incredible view over the Tagus River and the city. • Take the ferry and make a mixed plan Cacilhas + Lisbon. The terminal is very practical for this. • If you like photography or video, the old industrial area and the warehouses by the river have a very cinematic aesthetic. • Have dinner with seafood or grilled fish in a typical tavern. On Rua Cândido dos Reis there are several spots with a livelier atmosphere. • If you go by bike, the route between Cacilhas and Cristo Rei has short climbs but is very worthwhile for the view

The 25th of April Bridge is a suspension bridge in Lisbon, Portugal, very similar to San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge. It crosses the Tagus River, connecting the capital to the city of Almada. Inaugurated in 1966 as the Salazar Bridge, it was renamed after the Carnation Revolution on April 25, 1974, in commemoration of the end of the dictatorship. It is a vital structure that carries both vehicles and trains.

It's worth making the 10-minute ferry journey from Cais do Sodré station in Lisbon to Cacilhas across the river. This waterfront district on the southern bank of the Tagus offers one of the most beautiful views of Lisbon and has several restaurants known for their fresh fish. That journey is made on a "cacilheiro," a single-hull ferry that does the public transportation service between the two sides of the river. As soon as you arrive in Cacilhas, you can smell the fish being grilled, inviting you to take a break for a meal before visiting the Cristo Rei monument nearby or before an afternoon at the beach. In Rua Cândido dos Reis alone (a pedestrian street found a few feet from the ferry station), you have around 20 restaurants to choose from, most serving traditional Portuguese cuisine. On this street, you may visit the Church of Our Lady of Safe Homecoming, built in 1759 with a beautiful gilded interior and decorative tile panels. Across the road you find a large vessel (the "D. Fernando II e Glória"), which may be visited daily except Mondays. It dates from 1843 and connected Lisbon to the Portuguese colonies in India.

Today, the Guincho do Porto is a preserved industrial monument and is considered an important cultural and historical heritage of Almada. It is a testament to the importance of the port of Almada in the history of the city and the country.

The largest urban park in the municipality of Almada (50 hectares), with an extensive network of paths; a lake that is a natural habitat for diverse fauna; ponds; a vast wooded area interspersed with clearings; a Biodiversity Station trail; public toilets; a kiosk; bicycle parking; and an electric vehicle charging station. Surrounded by the urban fabric of the city of Almada, the Parque da Paz is a leisure space that appeals to the stillness of the senses.
