A port that once launched the caravels of the Discoveries, Lagos pairs a lively walled town with some of the most photographed coastline in Europe, from Ponta da Piedade to Praia da Luz. This is everything happening across the concelho: the towns, the beaches, the events and the businesses, brought together and kept current by the community.
