Sagres
The end of the world

What is Sagres like for tourism and recreation?
What notable accommodation is there?
Sagres has one of only three Pousadas in the Algarve – Pousada de Sagres – Infante. Pousadas were originally government supported hotels designed to preserve Portuguese culture and history and nowadays they offer a truly luxurious and calming stay
What is there to see at Cabo de São Vicente?
Further along is the headland of Cabo de São Vincente – Cape St. Vincent. Here there is quite a well known lighthouse (claimed to be one of Europe’s most powerful) and the views are simply breath taking.
What types of properties are available and what are prices like?
There is a mixture of villas and townhouses for sale in and around Sagres, apartments are harder to find. Expect to pay around €500,000 for a traditional villa.
Is Sagres a good investment for rental property?
To buy in Sagres is more of a lifestyle choice rather than investment – rentals here are not as good as other areas in the Algarve. In Sagres you buy with your heart, not your head.
