Lagos


Lagos still has it's old cosmopolitan air and long standing involvement with the ocean - with an eye to the future but with respect for it's past.
Lagos is an easy place to while away a week or two and provides a good base to explore further west to Sagres and up the west coast. Many people find the city the most likeable town on the Algarve coast - it's lively but a bit laid back and easy going.
The town is spread around the river and marina, and is surrounded by the most beautiful countryside which looks back inland towards the Monchique Mountains.
Lagos is famous for its many beautiful beaches, golf courses, fine restaurants and of course, its wonderful coastline! Lagos is an interesting town with a maze of winding cobbled streets full of pavement restaurants, café bars, antique and art shops; it's a town of culture and history. This old fishing village manages to combine the charm of it's past days, with all the demands of a modern holiday destination, and the modern marina in the town provides an entrance to one of the most popular destinations on the Algarve.
