I want to spend some words about my last vacation in Portugal,
If you’re going on holiday to see a beautiful and calm sea,
You’re going in the wrong place.
Portugal is a magical place where you can surf during the day and come back home and have a shower and enjoy the night as well. Nice people amazing vibes.

Lagos Full Guide

Adding a few days in the Algarve on to your Portugal itinerary? Here are the must-visit spots. I have a home in the small fishing/resort town of Olhos d'Agua and have found some real gems in my visits there. 

The Algarve is a mix of natural beaches and beauty with great weather, small to medium sized towns focused on tourism, especially in the summer months. It gets much quieter in the "off season," so keep that in mind if you're planning to visit outside of summer, as some places shut down in winter. 

Getting around the Algarve either from Lisbon or Faro typically means renting a car so you can visit off-the-beaten-path locations, but taxi/Uber/Bolt are plentiful and pretty affordable. 

I'll continue to update this guide on a regular basis as I go deeper and explore the region that's my 2nd home!

Lagos

Old town Lagos is a charming set of winding streets with great restaurants and shops as well as a charming marina. A must-visit!

Lagos is the starting point for a lot of fun excursions on the water. You'll find all selling points on the boardwalk. 

I highly recommend to book an hotel here are very cheap and the place is magic.
