Take a break, and fill your lungs with sea air from the Atlantic Ocean on a sailing trip from the simple fishing town of Lagos. Lagos Marina offers you top quality facilities that have been honoured with the respected ‘Euromarine Anchor Award’ and the ‘Blue Flag of Europe’.

Cast off the moorings and take a trip in a hired boat, where you can raise your glass to the refined onboard service which includes a champagne breakfast.

On your voyage you’ll begin to appreciate how the walled town of Lagos, with a history dating back to the Portuguese Discoveries, has managed to keep its heritage intact. Head towards the horizon and the lands of the Indies by taking the route of the Portuguese seafarers, and discover coves hidden among the cliffs as you search for virgin sands and unspoilt locations on your way to the Sagres Promontory.

Explore the "thousand-and-one" caves hidden amid the rugged, sea-beaten crags. But don’t stop there. Change direction and sail through the calm warm waters to the lively Albufeira Marina, or the cosmopolitan Vilamoura Marina a little further on.

And on your return to Lagos, why not opt for the thrill of deep-sea fishing or a dive into the depths of the crystalline waters? In the early morning, fish arrives at the market at daybreak. Fresh from the sea, this fare is central to the region’s gastronomy. Choose one of the fine restaurants with their traditional mouth-watering dishes, and listen to the old men telling seafarers’ tales. The nightlife in Lagos is another surprise. The rest is up to you!
