Superb watersports
As a general rule, the further west you head from Faro, the better the surfing beaches although conditions are pretty good across the entire Algarve coast. Around Sagres the constant winds are perfect for windsurfing with Martinhal considered to be one of the best spots in Europe. Surf camps are common on the rugged coastal stretches around Lagos and Sagres and the increasingly popular sport of kite surfing can be found on many of the beaches around Albufeira and closer to Faro.

Jutting out into the Atlantic Ocean, the windy Cape of St Vincent remains a major landmark not only to Europe's migrating birds but also to passing ships whose safety is ensured by the Cape's powerful lighthouse.
