Belles plages à Lagos

Beautiful Beaches

Lagos is renowned for its dramatic coastline of golden limestone cliffs and turquoise waters. This selection includes secluded coves like Praia do Camilo, accessed via a long wooden staircase, and the expansive Meia Praia, which stretches for four kilometers. Visitors can find unique geological features, such as the Roman-style bridge at Praia dos Estudantes and the distinctive rock formations of Dona Ana Beach. These beaches offer varied environments, from sheltered spots protected by high cliffs to open stretches with views across the bay.
