Setúbal, Port city in Lisbon region, Portugal
The city extends along the northern bank of the Sado River estuary, bordered by the Arrabida hills and connected to the Atlantic Ocean through natural harbors.
The settlement evolved from ancient Cetobriga under Roman rule to become an officially recognized Portuguese city in 1860 under King Pedro V administration.
The Mercado do Livramento market displays local seafood traditions, with vendors offering fresh catch and regional produce across multiple indoor sections.
Regular train connections run between Setubal and Lisbon, while ferries transport passengers to the Troia Peninsula throughout the day.
The Sado Estuary maintains a permanent colony of bottlenose dolphins, which remain in these waters since 1981 and can be observed through guided tours.
