Almada

Almada is a city in the Lisbon Region located in the south bank of the Tagus river, just across from Lisbon. At Cacilhas, the main port, ferry boats transport visitors and local residents across to Lisbon daily, while the 25 de Abril Bridge which spans the Tagus is routinely traversed by rail, commercial and personal vehicles daily. Almada is considered a transportation hub and a fast-growing suburb. Although small, Almada's coasts are punctuated by several sandy beaches and panoramic vistas.
