Palmela is a municipality situated in southern Portugal within the Setúbal District, and it is part of the Lisbon Metropolitan Area. Located southeast of Lisbon, Palmela is adjacent to the Arrábida mountain range and is renowned for its picturesque landscapes, historical castle, and wine production.

Despite being close to rural regions, Palmela has robust public transport links. The Sado line of Lisbon's suburban train network connects it to Setúbal and Barreiro (with ferry access to Lisbon from Barreiro). Furthermore, the Fertagus train line provides direct access to Lisbon, with stations like Pinhal Novo and Palmela-A enhancing commuter convenience to the capital. The Carris Metropolitana bus network further supports rail services by offering comprehensive bus routes throughout the municipality and to surrounding areas.

The municipality is divided into four civil parishes: Palmela, Pinhal Novo, Quinta do Anjo, and Poceirão e Marateca, which together feature a blend of urban centers and rural communities, enriching the region's diverse character.
