Nature Park of Arrábida, Nature reserve in Setúbal Peninsula, Portugal.
The park extends over 10,821 hectares of land, combining Mediterranean forests with limestone cliffs that rise directly from Atlantic Ocean waters.
The area gained protected status in 1976 as part of Portugal's initiative to preserve natural regions containing rare plant species and geological formations.
Local producers in the Azeitão region within the park boundaries create wines and cheeses following traditional methods passed through generations.
The park management requires visitors to obtain official guide accompaniment for accessing certain protected sections to maintain ecological preservation.
Serra do Risco within the park contains the highest coastal cliff of continental Portugal, reaching 380 meters above sea level.
