Statue of Prince Henry the Navigator

Highlight • Monument

Henry the Navigator, as Infante Dom Henrique de Avis is called, did not undertake any expeditions himself. He owes his nickname to his work as a sponsor of seafaring. Many statues and monuments pay tribute to the founder and patron of Portugal as a naval and colonial power.

Costa Vicentina Cliffs

Highlight • Natural Monument

The race between Sagres and Cabo de São Vicente runs along the cliffs of Costa Vicentina. It's a varied race, where the surface changes constantly. The highlight of the route is certainly the numerous (and magnificent) views from the cliffs. This point, in particular, provides an incredible panorama of the area.

Cabo de São Vicente Lighthouse

Highlight • Monument

Five kilometers from Sagres rises the mythical Cabo de São Vicente, the last gaze of land for explorers setting off towards the unknown of the vast ocean.

Wild, windy, and imposing, this promontory of steep cliffs plunges into the Atlantic, crowned by one of Europe's most powerful lighthouses.

Called by the Romans Promontorium Sacrum, the "end of the world" was for centuries a sacred place, shrouded in legends and mysteries. Today, it remains a pilgrimage point for sailors, hikers, and dreamers, where the horizon seems to dissolve into infinity.
