Almada, just a stone's throw away from Portugal's vibrant capital, Lisbon, offers a unique blend of urban buzz and tranquil natural escapes. Most famously, Almada is home to the Cristo Rei (Christ the King) statue, an emblematic monument inspired by Rio de Janeiro's Christ the Redeemer, watching over both Almada and Lisbon. While its maritime history is evident in the docks and old shipyards, Almada's beaches, like Costa da Caparica, are a haven for sun-seekers and surfers alike.
