At Farol da Ponta da Piedade, you can climb down a steep stairway reminiscent of the old seafaring season. Once at the bottom, you will find a small jetty, from where you can take a breathtaking boat tour through the caves of the cliffs. The tour lasts about 40 minutes. Tip: do not forget the camera!

Dona Ana Beach

Highlight • Beach

Wonderful beach and in November we had one almost to ourselves. There is also a parking lot at the top right on the beach. But you can also hike along the coast. There are many other beautiful beaches nearby.

Historic Center of Lagos

Highlight • Historical Site

Fortunately, the center of Lagos is traffic-calmed, so that nothing stands in the way of a tranquil city stroll.
