Sightseeing, museums & tourist attractions
Cabo de São Vicente
Europe's most southwestern point is located only 6km from Sagres. It is a beautiful spot although there is no public transport.
Fortaleza de Sagres
Dating from 1793, this fortress has an impressive exterior but is disappointing once you pay to go inside.
