Nightlife is lively too in Lagos. There are numerous wonderful restaurants, many with outdoor tables set around the old streets and main square. Fresh fish and good, local wine are enjoyable, with fish being eaten just hours after being caught. After eating, a range of bars and discos are available to drink and dance the night away, if you so choose. Just wandering about and soaking up the atmosphere is an experience in itself and traditional Portuguese nights out, with dining, dance and entertainment can be found in many places.

During the Voyages of Discovery, Prince Henry the Navigator would restock his caravels at Lagos as they set out to prove the world did not end at Cabo Bojador. King Sebastião made it the capital of the Algarve, and it remained so until 1755. Lagos was also the starting point for king Sebastião as he set out to conquer North Africa, an expedition that was to prove historically disastrous for Portugal. From the Manueline window set into the Governor’s Castle, he was to address his troops for the final time. In the Gil Eanes Square, the sculptor João Cutileiro managed to embody the wild dreams of this adolescent king.

 

In its churches, museums and bustling squares, Lagos reveals its ties with the Ocean. On either side of the centre stand two testimonies to very different times. There is the Ponta da Bandeira Fortress, built to impose respect among the corsairs that plagued the region and now home to a museum dedicated to the Discoveries. At the other extreme, there is the Marina, a meeting point with all the people and bars for a lively late afternoon drink.
