Highlights
Immerse yourself in the rich history of the Portuguese Discoveries on a half-day trip to the West Algarve with an expert local guide! In addition to the golden Church of St. Anthony, a national monument, Lagos is home to what was once one of the main slave markets in Europe during the 16th century. Pay a visit to the Antonine Museum inside the church to explore historical relics, and stop by the Statue of Prince Henry the Navigator to discover Lagos’ significant role in the Age of Discoveries. Further west, Sagres is home to a beautiful, well-preserved fishing port, near its 15th-century fortress. A visit to Cape St. Vincent, once known as the "End of the World," is a must. As the most south-western point of Europe, it offers breathtaking views and the chance to witness one of the most unforgettable sunsets. The cape also houses Europe’s most powerful lighthouse.

About Faro
Faro is the capital of Portugal's Algarve, a small walled old town beside the Ria Formosa lagoon, with sandy barrier islands a short boat ride away.
Faro is built around a marina and an old town enclosed by walls, entered through the neoclassical Arco da Vila. Inside, quiet lanes lead to the cathedral and to the Carmo Church, whose Chapel of Bones is lined with the skulls and bones of monks. The city feels more local than the resorts along the coast.
Top-ranked sights in Faro: Ilha do Farol, Barreta Island (Ilha Deserta), Arco da Vila.
