Are you looking for a laid-back beach town with a perfect blend of history, natural beauty, and a lively atmosphere?
Lagos, Portugal is a vibrant coastal town located in the stunning Algarve region and it's an excellent destination for first-time visitors.
My husband and I had a relaxing and enjoyable two weeks in the coastal town of Lagos, located in the southern Algarve region of Portugal. The city retains its Portuguese charm but is very much an international tourist town. English is widely spoken and a variety of cuisines available.
