Your journey begins on the west coast in the tranquil Alentejo, nicknamed "the bread basket" for its many golden fields. You then head south through the vast South-West Alentejano and Costa Vicentina Natural Park, passing through Vila Nova de Milfontes and its popular beach. The typical Algarve village of Aljezur, with its white houses and discreet lanes, welcomes you to the Algarve.
From there, you descend to Sagres, the city of surfers, and Cape St. Vincent with its 200 m high cliffs. On the south coast, you enter the most lively part of the Algarve, of which Portimão and one of the most famous beaches in Portugal, Praia da Rocha, are worthy representatives.
You complete this sunny stay in the Vale do Guadiana natural park, before reaching São Domingos and its old and majestic open pit mine. You will understand why this coast is so popular!
