Sesimbra is small enough that most initial sights like Praia da Califórnia, the fishing dock, and Sesimbra Castle are all within walking distance. For longer distances or where some sightseeing is intended, especially in areas outside the city center, one can opt for local buses, cabs, or even a rented car. Carrying the bags with clothes for the two days also means that bicycles are useful for leisurely riding in the surrounding area. The drive is scenic if you want to view the coastal views. Intensive boat tours are helpful as they enable you to view the incredible coves and rock formations missed from the roadsides.
Can you explore Sesimbra by yourself?
According to the above observations, it is safe to travel alone in this town. This city has a transparent organization with pedestrians' unknown paths and exciting places marked well. A town map or an application determining the direction will help make the observation quicker. Some easily accessible areas include Sesimbra Castle, which has a historical background, the fishing port, and the Califórnia beach. While one can explore on foot, going with a guide is also advantageous since they offer extra information and context about the sites.
What is the best day of the week to visit Sesimbra?

This is especially true in the high seasons where weeks are busy, especially on weekends. Weekends and public holidays are when the number of visitors may increase.
