Description

You start the day towards São Vicente Cape. As you reach this location, you are at the far southwest of Europe. Nowadays there is a lighthouse that harbors a small museum depicting the Discoveries period, where some fortress ruins lie.

You then go to Sagres, an essential location in the history of Portuguese maritime expansion. Here you will also be able to observe some of the best kept corners with unforgettable views of the meeting point between the south coast and the west coast of Portugal.

Get to know the Fortress of Sagres where Prince Henry the Navigator spent the late years of his life contemplating the unknown ocean. Delight in the landscapes and the immensity of blue that seems to go beyond infinity.

Lagos is your next stop. Enjoy the panoramic views over Praia da Luz and the beautiful coast on the way to this ancient capital of the Algarve. In Lagos you must choose between a panoramic van tour passing by Ponta da Piedade, one of the most beautiful locations of the region with their dazzling golden rocks in a clear contrast to the turquoise blue of the sea or a 1 hour boat tour in which you will be able to see the famous cliffs of Ponta da Piedade from the water, a true natural wonder that leaves no one indifferent.

Have a relaxing lunch in the heart of Lagos. Afterwards go for a walking tour with your Cool guide and explore the old city with its medieval walls that transport us to other times, where some of the first navigators departed from.
