Cabo de Sao Vicente headland at Sagres, Portugal

We travelled to the Cabo de Sao Vicente headland near Sagres in Portugal. Here, in southern Portugal, we found Europe's most south-westerly point. The sea crashes into 75-metre-high cliffs, and one of Europe's most powerful lighthouses sends its light signals across the Atlantic. We also visited the nearby Ponta de Sagres headland. Join us at the dramatic Cabo de Sao Vicente headland and the great sea battles!

On the other side is a strip of beach with beautiful rock formations and small cosy coves, where you can find your own little secluded corner for sunbathing and swimming.
