Lagos is known for its rich cultural heritage, maritime history and for being a welcoming and cosmopolitan location in the Algarve.
Lagos Marina is the focus for many activities and the starting point for boat trips to discover the rock formations along the coast, to explore the caves or even to head out to spot dolphins in the wild.
The main city of Lagos is made up of meandering streets with traditional Portuguese “Calçada” cobbles and home to a huge selection of cafes, bars and restaurants.
There are many historical landmarks and museums to visit in Lagos, including the fortress and slave market museum. However it is the beaches of Lagos that draw most of the visitors, with Praia Dona Ana and Meia Praia being two of the most beautiful beaches in the region and an idyllic location at any time of the year.
