Paço de Arcos occupies a coastal strip on the northern shore of the Tagus estuary in the Lisbon region. This parish of Oeiras lies between Lisbon and Cascais, where the broad estuary opens towards the Atlantic and the coastal railway serves the waterfront communities. Its historic centre is marked by Palácio dos Arcos, a former aristocratic residence whose arches gave the locality its name. Cafés and a seafront promenade lend the area an everyday, residential character, while Lisbon remains closely connected by rail.
