It is a gentle 5 minute scenic stroll across the river and footbridge to the
bustling town of Lagos. Lagos has a daily fresh fish market, artisan shops
with pottery and clothing bargains and many small craft shops.
The historic old town is steeped in over a thousand years of history, and
many ancient buildings remain which stand testament to its colourful
past as the link between Europe and Africa.
Just a few minutes walk away is the 18 hole Palmares golf course
overlooking the Bay of Lagos and one of the most beautiful in the
Algarve. Five of the holes are played on the sand dunes and the fifth, a
par 5 of 550 metres is a real challenge. The 18 hole Boa Vista course is a
short drive away and within 15 minutes are some of the finest courses in
Portugal. There are 5 well-known golf courses in the Lagos area, Palmares,
being the nearest, then going west
to Boa Vista & Parque da Floresta,
the latter being a 15 minute drive
away. Towards the east side, there
are the Penina & Alto golf courses,
again a 20 minute drive away.
