Landscape

Lagos is surrounded by some of the most beautiful beaches in the Algarve. Praia de Dona Ana is about a half hour walk form the centre of Lagos but one look at it’s white sands and crystal waters will tell you it’s worth it. Just north of Lagos is the Barragem de Bravura, a water reserve that is not only a spectacular sight itself but also offers fantastic views of the surrounding areas.

Culture

Despite its modernisation there remains plenty of evidence in Lagos of its rich history. One building in the town dates back to 1445 and is recorded as being the first building in Europe to be used as a slave market. The 17th Century gold church of Santo Antonio is also a big attraction for tourists as is the Forta de Bandeira, the entrance to the harbour, which was built in the 17th Century. The town celebrates many religious and cultural festivals throughout the year including the Festival de Flamenco in September and the town holiday on 27th October so there should be something to see while on holidays to Lagos.
