Sagres's Lighthouse

Sagres's Lighthouse, located in the beautiful village of Sagres, Portugal, is a stunning sight and a must-see for any traveler to the region. At around 28 meters tall, the lighthouse stands guard over the cape and has been guiding ships safely since 1846. Built in the late 18th Century and surrounded by the imposing cliffs of the cliff coast, the Lighthouse provides visitors with a breathtaking panoramic view. Visitors can enjoy walking around the lighthouse grounds and check out nearby rugged coastline and beaches, including the famous Praia da Baleeira. Nearby, shipwreck seekers don't even need to go too far to find signs of the dramatic events which have met some of the vessels as far back as the 16th century.
