Lagos Municipality

Lagos is a municipality at the mouth of Bensafrim River and along the Atlantic Ocean, in the Barlavento region of the Algarve, in southern Portugal. It is one of the most visited cities in the Algarve and Portugal, due to its variety of tourist-friendly beaches, rock formations (Ponta da Piedade), bars, restaurants and hotels, renowned for its vibrant summer nightlife and parties. Yet, Lagos is also a historic centre of the Portuguese Age of Discovery, frequent home of Henry the Navigator, historical shipyard and, at one time, centre of the European slave trade.

The Travel Guy

Andrew Wharton is the best go to guy when it comes to travel My husband and I had never been out of Canada when we decided to take a trip to the DR. We would have been lost without the assistance and advice of Andrew from the time we boarded the plane until we returned. He just seems to have that special knack for knowing what and how to do things that first time travelers get lost in Thanks Andrew
