Sudoeste Alentejano e Costa Vicentina Essentials

This protected coastal strip stretches along Portugal's southwestern edge, characterized by high schist cliffs and Atlantic surf. The selection features the 15th-century Sagres Fortress and the lighthouse at Cabo de São Vicente, marking Europe's southwesternmost point. Coastal highlights include the surf-heavy Praia do Amado and the sheltered cove of Arrifana, while inland sites like the Moorish Castle of Aljezur and the restored Odeceixe windmill offer views over traditional whitewashed villages and the Seixe River valley.
