Lagos Beaches
From the long Avenida dos Descobrimentos we appreciate the profile of the city and the Marina full of life and animation. This route leads us to the sea and to the beaches, which are one of the most beautiful in the Algarve, so often distinguished by international entities and magazines.
To the east is Meia Praia, a long sandy beach with about five kilometers that ends in the Ria do Alvor. On the other hand, smaller sands are bathed in transparent waters, to which the cliffs sculpted by erosion add a stunning beauty.
This is the beaches of Batata, Pinhão, Dona Ana and Camilo, with access from the city center. Further on to Ponta da Piedade, the region’s ex-libris, is an impressive rock formation with jagged shapes and excavated caves that can be fully enjoyed on a boat trip. Barranco Martinho, Canavial, Porto de Mós and Praia da Luz complete this offer, which still includes many hard-to-reach sand shells, some only reachable by sea.
They’re little paradises waiting to be discovered. This entire coast with caves and beaches can be seen on boat trips from the Ria de Lagos with access by Avenida dos Descobrimentos.
