- Cape Saint Vincent - As the most south-westerly point in mainland Europe, this rugged and imposing Cape has long been revered as sacred ground. The ancient Greeks referred to it as the ‘Land of Serpents’, while the Romans, interestingly, chose a gentler name: Promontorium Sacrum (‘Holy Promontory’), which is the Latin root of the name ‘Sagres’ (from Sacrum). For the Romans, who preferred solid ground, Cape St. Vincent was the ‘Edge of the World’, a mystical place where the setting sun seemed to vanish into the vast, unknown ocean. Even today, the sun appears larger and brighter as it sets at Cape St. Vincent. This myth endured through the Middle Ages until Prince Henry the Navigator decided to dispel such notions, marking the end of the Age of Darkness.
- Sagres - Sagres reached its peak of global significance in the 15th century, thanks to Prince Henry the Navigator. He made Sagres his home and established his school of navigation there. The school produced notable figures such as Fernao de Magalhaes (Magellan), Pedro Alvares Cabral, and Vasco da Gama, whose influence is still felt worldwide. It was from nearby Belixe that the first caravels set sail, the very ships that ushered in Portugal’s Age of Discoveries and helped shape the nation’s identity.
- Lagos - Lagos is a historic and charming city located on the stunning Western Algarve. It boasts a rich maritime heritage and a coastline of breathtaking natural beauty, making it one of the Algarve’s premier holiday destinations.
Visitors will park outside the walled town, and a guide will lead them on a walking tour to the town center, offering recommendations for restaurants and attractions. The town is compact, allowing easy exploration of its most interesting sites on foot. The guide will then designate a meeting point for everyone to gather later for the return trip. Guests will have over two hours to enjoy Lagos independently.
