Reserva Natural do Estuário do Sado is a natural and protected reserve that is open to the public for exploration, fishing, swimming, and much more. It is located across the Tagus bay, heading southeast along the coast, about a 1 hour and 15-minute drive from Lisbon. The estuary has white sand beaches with crystal clear, calm waters that are perfect for swimming and fishing.

For animal lovers, there are over 200 species of birds and a very large dolphin population that can be seen from the beach and by boat. Not far from the beaches are vast ancient Roman ruins that can be explored at any time. The entire estuary has plenty of hiking and walking trails to get to every point of interest easily.
