Palmela

In the heart of the Lisbon metropolitan area, Palmela is divided into five parishes that differ greatly from each other in terms of demographic dynamism, occupation and land use. It is integrated into the Setúbal Tourism Region – Costa Azul. One part of its territory is part of the Sado Estuary Natural Reserve, the other part of the Serra da Arrábida Natural Park. In economic terms, industry and services are the most representative sectors, although agriculture still holds some weight. The beauty of the landscape and the products produced in the region are another strong point of the municipality, as they are known throughout the country and highly sought after by visitors. The Harvest Festival, which takes place annually at the end of August, continues to be the most significant event promoting indigenous products.
