Vilamoura to Lagos and Sagres: Private, guided half-day tour

Explore Lagos and its Ponta da Piedada, a perfect stop for seaside adventure. Your expert local guide will structure your exploration of Lagos to make the most of your time. Start with a visit to the iconic Ponta da Piedade to view surreal sea stacks, grottoes, and arches from cliffside trails or by boat for an oceanfront experience. Then, meander the walled maze of white facades and azulejos of the Old Town, enjoying echoes of the Age of Discovery. Consider a visit to the small coastal fort, Forte Da Ponta da Bandeira. Finish the day with a local delicacy, grilled sardines, eaten on a terrace while sipping on vinho verde.

Explore picture-perfect Sagres, offering coastal postcard views of sheer cliffs and natural beaches. With your tour guide, you will explore the most iconic sights of Sagres. Tour Fortaleza de Sagres, a 15th-century fortress boasting panoramic cliff trails and insight into the area’s maritime history. Spend time on the local beaches: Praia do Tonel for wilder natural surroundings favored by surfers, or Praia da Mareta for a quick dip in calmer waters. Then, enjoy a cliff walk toward Beliche for memorable photos among the wildflowers. Finally, visit Cabo de Sao Vicente, the south-westernmost point of Europe, where you can see the famous red lighthouse, and feel at the end of the world atop dramatic cliffs. Be sure to try Percebes (goose barnacles).
