A LAND OF DISCOVERIES, LAGOS FEELS LIKE AN EXPLOSION TO ONE’S SENSES; THE NATURAL BEAUTY ALIGNED WITH THE RICH HISTORY OF THE SITE AND ITS FAST DEVELOPMENT TRAJECTORY, ALLOWS FOR A UNIQUE VISION OF THE FUTURE.
Forte Ponta da Bandeira
In a symbiosis of tradition and modernity, Lagos municipality puts forward a number of charms that reveal the identity of an ancestral culture. From its ancient monuments to the examples of urban and public art, there is a lot to discover in this rather special place that still reflects in every street corner the golden age of the Portuguese Discoveries.
Praça Luís de Camões
Regata Portos dos Descobrimentos
With a perfect coastline for the enjoyment of nautical sports and activities, Lagos is surrounded by amazing beaches, such as the prize-winning Meia Praia, Dona Ana, Camilo, Porto de Mós and Luz. In order to enjoy a sunset with the fantastic Costa d’Oiro (Golden Coast) as a backdrop, there is nothing better than a walk on the walkways leading to the emblematic Ponta da Piedade. For Nature lovers, the Barão de São João National Woods is the best suggestion.
Camilo Beach
Meia praia (beach)
The sense of taste of the sea and the land are also present in this town, revealed through the local traditional appetizers, based on recipes that go back generations; such is the case of the Dom Rodrigo, a typical pastry from Algarve, which originated in Lagos.
Culture and History also go hand-in-hand here, promoted through several dynamic events that take place throughout the year. There is therefore no lack of good reasons to visit Lagos and collect along some of the best memories of your life.
