Sagres Fortress

Sagres Castle is located on a narrow headland that extends into the Atlantic Ocean to form the southwesternmost point of Portugal. It dates back to the fifteenth century; It is a time when the Portuguese coast was often the target of raids from the Barbary pirates who set off from the nearby North African shores. Visitors can learn about the history of the castle from the various signs scattered around the area, wander around the rocky outcrops, and enjoy the charming panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean and the coast of Cabo de Vincent Al Waer.
