LAGOS - Tourists choose coastal town as best place to visit the Algarve for the first time

With its charming historic center, beaches surrounded by cliffs and tranquil atmosphere, Lagos is perfect for those who want to visit the Algarve for the first time or for those who have already fallen in love with the region and want to return.

Unlike other large urban centers in the Algarve, Lagos combines serenity with a wide range of accommodation and services.

Located in the far west of the Algarve, Lagos has a privileged location, easy to reach from Lisbon (about three hours away) or Faro, the capital of the Algarve (about an hour). This proximity makes Lagos a strategic point from which to explore the region's natural and cultural beauty.

Lagos is surrounded by some of the most picturesque beaches in the Algarve. Just a few minutes' walk from the center are Praia Dona Ana and Praia do Camilo, famous for their stunning beauty, crystal-clear waters and golden sands, ideal for sunbathing or for photography lovers.

The historic center of Lagos is vibrant and welcoming, with streets full of restaurants, stores and a moderate nightlife. The gastronomy ranges from typical Portuguese dishes to a diverse international cuisine, guaranteeing options for all tastes.
