Know more about your day trip
Sagres houses Prince Henry the Navigator's famous navigation school that launched Portugal's Age of Discovery. The fortress and Cape St. Vincent represent Europe's southwestern tip, known as "the end of the world."
Cape St. Vincent features spectacular 75-meter limestone cliffs with panoramic Atlantic views. The lighthouse marks continental Europe's southwestern point, offering sunset views that have inspired visitors for centuries.
Alvor maintains its traditional character with colorful fishing boats, whitewashed houses, and local restaurants serving fresh catch. The town offers authentic Portuguese coastal life alongside beautiful beaches.
Yes, the waters around Sagres and Cape St. Vincent are excellent for dolphin spotting. Boat tours from nearby harbors offer opportunities to see dolphins, and sometimes whales, in their natural habitat.
Sagres is Portugal's surfing capital with world-class waves for all skill levels. The area offers surf schools, board rentals, and breaks suitable for beginners and experienced surfers alike.
While beautiful, west coast beaches can have stronger currents and cooler water than south-facing Algarve beaches. Alvor offers calmer, warmer waters perfect for swimming and family activities.
Bring windproof clothing as coastal areas can be breezy, comfortable walking shoes for cliff paths, sun protection, and a camera for dramatic Atlantic sunset views.
