Day trip to Sesimbra & Cabo Espichel

Alex, Ella and I enjoyed a day trip to the Sesimbra area on our last full day in Albufeira. Alex is from Portugal and was excited to show us around, giving us history along the way. Our own personal tour guide 😆❤️
We kicked the day off with a half hour drive to the fishing town, Sesimbra. We oggled murals, tiny alleyways with lovely ceramic work & cliffside ocean views. There I had the most delicious mussels and clams of my life! Then... Passion fruit Gelato while we chatted and digested to ocean views.
Afterwards, we stopped by Cabo Espichel, a gorgeous cliffside coast with a lighthouse and monastery from the 1700s made for a Portuguese princess turned nun.En savoir plus
