The Portuguese have always been a seafaring nation and there is great sailing to be had along the Algarve coast. Whether you are looking for an afternoon's trip along the coast or even wish to do a sailing course during a week's holiday, all is available around Lagos and the Western Algarve.
The Marina de Lagos is the starting point for many sailing activities, this is very popular with boats heading from Northern Europe to the Mediterranean and is wonderful to walk round on a warm summer's evening. We have a number of apartments, catering for all pockets, around the Marina to base your holiday from so have a look at The Marina Club and Quinta Santo Antonio
