We can&#8217;t get enough of the <strong>golden limestone cliffs of Ponta da Piedade near Lagos, Portugal<\/strong>, and we&#8217;ve been coming back regularly since 2020. We fell head over heels for the whole area around Lagos back then, and these days we happily spend entire winter months here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This stretch of coastline is simply something you <strong>have to see with your own eyes<\/strong>, because no photo can fully capture its sheer, jaw-dropping grandeur. We work from here, we head out to surf the Atlantic swell, and we&#8217;ve even been secretly eyeing up a little place of our own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So pack a good mood, sturdy shoes and a big bottle of water. There are <strong>a good few hundred steps<\/strong> leading down to the ocean, but the view of the golden cliffs and the turquoise sea is absolutely worth every single one of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a4c7f7d89f75&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a4c7f7d89f75\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full

lighthouse or the new wooden boardwalk.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>  <strong>A new safe route:<\/strong> Since 2024, a beautiful continuous wooden boardwalk runs to the lighthouse from Lagos, so you no longer have to balance on the edge of crumbling cliffs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>  <strong>Hundreds of steps:<\/strong> Around 180 to 200 stone steps lead down to the ocean, where the little boats set off.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>  <strong>Boat trips into the caves:<\/strong> A ticket on a small boat straight from the cove costs around \u20ac15 to \u20ac20 in cash, while the larger boats from the marina run to just under \u20ac23.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>  <strong>When to go:<\/strong> You&#8217;ll get the best light and the fewest people early in the morning at sunrise, or in the late afternoon.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>  <strong>Nearby beaches:<\/strong> Right next to the cliffs you&#8217;ll find iconic beaches like Praia do Camilo and Praia da Dona Ana.<\/li>\n\n\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure

class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;re planning a holiday in the Algarve, <strong>the biggest crowds turn up in July and August<\/strong>. During that time Ponta da Piedade is besieged by tourists from around nine in the morning until four in the afternoon. In summer we try to <strong>head to the lighthouse right at sunrise<\/strong>, when it&#8217;s wonderfully peaceful and the colours of the sandstone are absolutely unreal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That said, we much <strong>prefer the spring and autumn months<\/strong>, when the weather is just right for exploring and you don&#8217;t have to dodge groups clutching parasols along the boardwalk. Spring here in southern Portugal starts very early, and even in March <strong>temperatures climb to a pleasant 20 degrees<\/strong>, which is absolutely ideal for hiking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We regularly <strong>spend whole winter months here<\/strong>, from December to February, and it&#8217;s probably at its most magical then.

We&#8217;ve fallen for it so completely that we consider it our second home. It offers a perfect mix of historic streets, fantastic food and incredible nature just around the corner. If you want the <strong>cliffs of Ponta da Piedade within easy reach<\/strong>, I&#8217;d recommend choosing accommodation in the southern part of town or right by the beaches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.stay22.com\/allez\/roam?aid=lukaskonecny&#038;campaign=loudavymkrokemcz&#038;campaign=ponta-da-piedade&#038;hotelname=Cascade%20Wellness%20Resort&#038;address=Lagos%2C%20Portugalsko\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow sponsored\">Cascade Wellness Resort<\/a><\/strong> is our little secret recommendation for those of you after pure luxury and total relaxation. This five-star hotel <strong>sits right on the cliff above the ocean<\/strong>, just a short way from the lighthouse. It has a gorgeous heated pool, a top-notch spa and even a kids&#8217; club.

A Walk Along the Coastal Boardwalk<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From the historic centre of Lagos it&#8217;s <strong>roughly two and a half kilometres<\/strong> to the lighthouse, which will take you about 40 minutes one way at a relaxed pace. Since 2024, though, the walk has become far more pleasant, as the local authorities built a <strong>continuous wooden boardwalk<\/strong> here. It starts at Praia do Pinh\u00e3o and leads safely all the way to the very tip of the cliffs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thanks to this boardwalk, you <strong>no longer have to risk balancing on the edge of crumbling cliffs<\/strong>, which were once quite dangerous due to erosion. The path guides you past the most beautiful viewpoints and safely skirts all the main beaches. We absolutely love doing this walk in the evening, when the sun isn&#8217;t so fierce and <strong>the wooden walkways turn golden<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83d\udca1 <strong>Tip:<\/strong> If you don&#8217;t fancy walking, you can drive along the Estrada da Ponta da Piedade road, which leads straight to the lighthouse. <strong>Parking right by the cliffs is completely free<\/strong>, but in the summer season the car park fills up very quickly, so I&#8217;d recommend arriving right after breakfast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a4c7f7d8c50a&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a4c7f7d8c50a\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1366\" height=\"2048\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-schody-k-oceanu.jpg\" alt=\"Wooden steps descending to the ocean at Ponta da Piedade\" class=\"wp-image-252116\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-schody-k-oceanu.jpg 1366w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-schody-k-oceanu-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-schody-k-oceanu-700x1050.jpg 700w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-schody-k-oceanu-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-schody-k-oceanu-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-schody-k-oceanu-696x1044.jpg 696w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-schody-k-oceanu-1392x2088.jpg 1365w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1366px) 100vw, 1366px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Farol_da_Ponta_da_Piedade_Lighthouse_and_the_Viewing_Terrace\"><\/span>2.

The interior of the lighthouse is closed to the public, but that&#8217;s really nothing to be sad about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The wide <strong>viewing terrace around the lighthouse is freely accessible<\/strong>, completely free of charge and around the clock. It&#8217;s probably the most famous viewpoint in the whole western Algarve, and you&#8217;ll also find a small, picturesque chapel surrounded by stone walls. From here you get the <strong>best views of the golden limestone cliffs<\/strong>, which plunge up to 20 metres into the ocean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a4c7f7d8cc01&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a4c7f7d8cc01\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1366\" height=\"2048\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-stezka-vyhlidka.jpg\" alt=\"Scenic trail above the cliffs of Ponta da Piedade near Lagos\" class=\"wp-image-252115\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-stezka-vyhlidka.jpg 1366w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-stezka-vyhlidka-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-stezka-vyhlidka-700x1050.jpg 700w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-stezka-vyhlidka-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-stezka-vyhlidka-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-stezka-vyhlidka-696x1044.jpg 696w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-stezka-vyhlidka-1392x2088.jpg 1365w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1366px) 100vw, 1366px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Descending_the_200_Stone_Steps_to_the_Ocean\"><\/span>3.

Around <strong>180 to 200 narrow stone steps<\/strong> lead down to the ocean, straight into a rocky cove. Sources vary slightly on the exact number \u2014 we last counted around 190 \u2014 but the point is that the way down is absolutely fascinating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just a heads-up: these stone steps are often <strong>confused in guidebooks with the famous wooden steps down to Camilo beach<\/strong>, but they&#8217;re two different places. Anyone can manage the descent into the cove below the lighthouse, but <strong>the climb back up can be quite a workout in the summer heat<\/strong>, as there&#8217;s almost no shade. Definitely don&#8217;t forget to bring a big bottle of water and sturdy shoes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a4c7f7d8d27c&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a4c7f7d8d27c\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1366\" height=\"2048\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-pesi-promenada-boardwalk.jpg\" alt=\"Wooden coastal boardwalk along the cliffs of Ponta da Piedade\" class=\"wp-image-252114\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-pesi-promenada-boardwalk.jpg 1366w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-pesi-promenada-boardwalk-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-pesi-promenada-boardwalk-700x1050.jpg 700w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-pesi-promenada-boardwalk-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-pesi-promenada-boardwalk-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-pesi-promenada-boardwalk-696x1044.jpg 696w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-pesi-promenada-boardwalk-1392x2088.jpg 1365w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1366px) 100vw, 1366px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_A_Trip_into_the_Caves_by_Small_Boat\"><\/span>4. A Trip into the Caves by Small Boat<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>most authentic boat trips set off in small motorboats<\/strong> straight from the cove at the bottom of the stone steps. These little boats are steered by local fishermen and guides who know every rock and can manoeuvre right into the narrowest, darkest caves. For a roughly 30 to 45-minute cruise, you&#8217;ll <strong>pay around \u20ac15 to \u20ac20 per person in 2026<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They usually only accept cash here, so <strong>don&#8217;t forget to withdraw some euros in advance in Lagos<\/strong>. Gliding beneath the stone arches, close enough to almost touch the damp limestone with your hand, is an experience you won&#8217;t forget in a hurry. In peak summer season these little boats are in huge demand, so <strong>we recommend arriving for the very first rides of the morning<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83d\udca1 <strong>Tip:<\/strong> If you&#8217;d rather not haggle with cash on the spot, you can <strong>conveniently book the boat trip online in advance through GetYourGuide<\/strong>. You&#8217;ll be guaranteed a place and avoid the morning stress, although the local boatmen down in the cove tend to be a few euros cheaper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a4c7f7d8d8d3&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a4c7f7d8d8d3\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-clun-vylet-jeskyne.jpg\" alt=\"Small boat weaving between the rock formations of Ponta da Piedade\" class=\"wp-image-252113\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-clun-vylet-jeskyne.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-clun-vylet-jeskyne-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-clun-vylet-jeskyne-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-clun-vylet-jeskyne-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-clun-vylet-jeskyne-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-clun-vylet-jeskyne-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-clun-vylet-jeskyne-1392x928.jpg 1392w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-clun-vylet-jeskyne-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_A_Kayak_or_Paddleboard_SUP_Trip\"><\/span>5.

We absolutely love it, because you have complete freedom and can reach tunnels and rock arches too small for even the tiniest motorboats. Hiring a kayak or joining an organised tour will <strong>cost you roughly \u20ac40 per person<\/strong>, while for a paddleboard you should budget around \u20ac45.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are essentially two formats for these trips. Either you <strong>set off by kayak straight from the centre of Lagos<\/strong>, with around two and a half hours of paddling along the coast ahead of you, or you go for the smarter catamaran combo. The larger boat takes you and the kayaks straight to the cliffs of Ponta da Piedade, you switch to a kayak for an hour to explore the caves, and you <strong>save yourself a lot of energy<\/strong> that you&#8217;d otherwise spend paddling out on the open sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a4c7f7d90bee&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a4c7f7d90bee\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-zatoka-lode-jeskyne.jpg\" alt=\"Boats in the cove below the cliffs of Ponta da Piedade, the launch point for cave trips\" class=\"wp-image-252112\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-zatoka-lode-jeskyne.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-zatoka-lode-jeskyne-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-zatoka-lode-jeskyne-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-zatoka-lode-jeskyne-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-zatoka-lode-jeskyne-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-zatoka-lode-jeskyne-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-zatoka-lode-jeskyne-1392x928.jpg 1392w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-zatoka-lode-jeskyne-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Photography_at_Sunrise_and_Sunset\"><\/span>6.

The entire rocky headland faces due south, which from a photographer&#8217;s point of view is a huge rarity.

This iconic little beach is reached by a <strong>famous staircase of roughly 200 wooden steps<\/strong>. The descent takes about ten minutes, and on the way down you&#8217;ll snap the most beautiful photos of the turquoise water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The beach is actually <strong>split into two smaller sections<\/strong>, cleverly connected by a short, hand-carved tunnel through the rock. You&#8217;ll find a calm shallow and a small rock arch right in the water. Because the beach is genuinely tiny, <strong>in summer you won&#8217;t easily find room to lay down a towel<\/strong>, which is why Luk\u00e1\u0161 and I prefer to come early in the morning or off-season during the winter months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a4c7f7d91674&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a4c7f7d91674\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1366\" height=\"2048\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-zlate-utesy-more.jpg\" alt=\"Golden limestone cliffs of Ponta da Piedade above the turquoise sea near Lagos\" class=\"wp-image-252110\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-zlate-utesy-more.jpg 1366w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-zlate-utesy-more-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-zlate-utesy-more-700x1050.jpg 700w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-zlate-utesy-more-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-zlate-utesy-more-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-zlate-utesy-more-696x1044.jpg 696w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-zlate-utesy-more-1392x2088.jpg 1365w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1366px) 100vw, 1366px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_Relaxing_on_the_Famous_Praia_da_Dona_Ana\"><\/span>8. Relaxing on the Famous Praia da Dona Ana<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The next beach on the route towards town is Praia da Dona Ana, which regularly tops the rankings as <strong>one of the most beautiful beaches in the entire Algarve<\/strong>. From the centre of Lagos you can reach it along the boardwalk in about 20 to 30 minutes. It&#8217;s noticeably larger than neighbouring Camilo and often serves as a starting point for various coastal trails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here too you&#8217;ll be greeted by the <strong>typical golden cliffs that shelter the beach from the wind<\/strong>, so the water is usually very calm and perfect for swimming. There are great facilities, you can rent sunloungers with parasols and grab a chilled drink at the local kiosk. We often come here simply to sit on the cliff above the beach and <strong>watch the sunset<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a4c7f7d91cca&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a4c7f7d91cca\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Ponta-da-Piedade.jpg\" alt=\"Ponta da Piedade\" class=\"wp-image-84690\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Ponta-da-Piedade.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Ponta-da-Piedade-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Ponta-da-Piedade-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Ponta-da-Piedade-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Ponta-da-Piedade-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Ponta-da-Piedade-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Ponta-da-Piedade-1392x928.jpg 1392w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Ponta-da-Piedade-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9_Exploring_the_Cliffs_by_Boat_with_BlueFleet_from_the_Marina\"><\/span>9. Exploring the Cliffs by Boat with BlueFleet from the Marina<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you don&#8217;t fancy walking all the way to the lighthouse and tackling hundreds of steps down to the small boats, you <strong>can take a trip on a larger boat straight from the marina in Lagos<\/strong>. One of the best-known operators is BlueFleet, which offers reliable and very comfortable cruises along the entire coast. An adult ticket <strong>costs a reasonable \u20ac22.50 in 2026<\/strong>, with children paying \u20ac12.50.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This trip <strong>lasts around an hour and a quarter<\/strong>, and the boat takes you past all the beautiful beaches right up to the cliffs of Ponta da Piedade themselves. A big plus is that the boats tend to have comfortable cushioned seating, a sun canopy and a very professional guide&#8217;s commentary. In the summer months, especially July and August, though, we <strong>strongly recommend booking these spots 24 to 48 hours in advance<\/strong> \u2014 the morning slots vanish in a flash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a4c7f7d922d1&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a4c7f7d922d1\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Ponta-da-Piedade.jpg\" alt=\"Ponta da Piedade\" class=\"wp-image-59567\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Ponta-da-Piedade.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Ponta-da-Piedade-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Ponta-da-Piedade-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Ponta-da-Piedade-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"10_Ponta_da_Piedade_vs_Benagil_Cave\"><\/span>10. Ponta da Piedade vs. Benagil Cave<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the blog you often ask us whether <strong>it&#8217;s better to visit Ponta da Piedade near Lagos or the famous Benagil caves<\/strong> a little further east. The answer is clear: both places are completely different, and both are well worth seeing. What&#8217;s more, the two spots aren&#8217;t far apart, and you can comfortably explore both in a single day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ponta da Piedade is one <strong>sprawling headland with an enormous number of caves<\/strong>, rock arches and varied formations. The boat trip here is far more varied, and you&#8217;ll get the best photos in the morning light. Benagil, by contrast, is essentially <strong>one huge iconic cave with an &#8220;eye&#8221; in the ceiling<\/strong> and a small beach inside. It&#8217;s better to go there after midday, when the sun&#8217;s rays fall through the ceiling opening straight onto the sand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a4c7f7d928db&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a4c7f7d928db\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1199\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-skryte-plaze-praia-do-pinhao-px.jpg\" alt=\"The hidden beaches of Praia do Pinh\u00e3o and Praia da Batata\" class=\"wp-image-252124\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-skryte-plaze-praia-do-pinhao-px.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-skryte-plaze-praia-do-pinhao-px-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-skryte-plaze-praia-do-pinhao-px-700x525.jpg 700w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-skryte-plaze-praia-do-pinhao-px-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-skryte-plaze-praia-do-pinhao-px-1536x1151.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-skryte-plaze-praia-do-pinhao-px-80x60.jpg 80w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-skryte-plaze-praia-do-pinhao-px-160x120.jpg 160w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-skryte-plaze-praia-do-pinhao-px-696x522.jpg 696w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-skryte-plaze-praia-do-pinhao-px-1392x1043.jpg 1392w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo: Rodolfo Fernandes \/ Pexels<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"11_The_Hidden_Beaches_of_Praia_do_Pinhao_and_Praia_da_Batata\"><\/span>11.

It offers beautiful golden cliffs, a few pleasant beach kiosks and plenty of sunloungers. Right next to it lies Praia dos Estudantes with its famous stone bridge arching between the cliffs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;re after something a little quieter, though, <strong>carry on for roughly two kilometres to Praia do Pinh\u00e3o<\/strong>. This beach is far less touched by tourism, and thanks to its high cliffs it&#8217;s brilliantly sheltered from the wind. It&#8217;s often <strong>completely empty even on warmer spring days<\/strong>, and thanks to the calm water it&#8217;s probably our favourite spot for a refreshing morning swim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a4c7f7d92e53&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a4c7f7d92e53\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1067\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-nase-oblibene-vegetarianske-k-px.jpg\" alt=\"Our favourite vegetarian caf\u00e9s and food in Lagos\" class=\"wp-image-252125\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-nase-oblibene-vegetarianske-k-px.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-nase-oblibene-vegetarianske-k-px-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-nase-oblibene-vegetarianske-k-px-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-nase-oblibene-vegetarianske-k-px-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-nase-oblibene-vegetarianske-k-px-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-nase-oblibene-vegetarianske-k-px-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-nase-oblibene-vegetarianske-k-px-1392x928.jpg 1392w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo: Alesia Kozik \/ Pexels<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"12_Our_Favourite_Vegetarian_Cafes_and_Food_in_Lagos_Old_Town\"><\/span>12.

Luckily, Lagos has an incredibly rich and modern food scene. As vegetarians, we&#8217;re in absolute heaven here, because the local spots <strong>really cater to young travellers and digital nomads<\/strong> who simply demand healthy food. You&#8217;ll find traditional Portuguese fish and seafood dishes in every second tavern, but we have other favourites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our absolute pride and joy is <strong>Est\u00fadio Vegetariano, which in our opinion is one of the best vegetarian restaurants<\/strong> in all of Portugal. It has an incredibly cosy interior and fantastic vegan desserts \u2014 but watch out, they only take cash. We also often head to the highly rated <strong>The Green Room<\/strong> or to the Lalitana bistro, which serves the best hummus, crispy falafel and proper pita.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a4c7f7d93304&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a4c7f7d93304\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1067\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-kam-dal-z-ponta-da-piedade-px.jpg\" alt=\"Where to go next from Ponta da Piedade\" class=\"wp-image-252126\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-kam-dal-z-ponta-da-piedade-px.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-kam-dal-z-ponta-da-piedade-px-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-kam-dal-z-ponta-da-piedade-px-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-kam-dal-z-ponta-da-piedade-px-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-kam-dal-z-ponta-da-piedade-px-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-kam-dal-z-ponta-da-piedade-px-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ponta-da-piedade-kam-dal-z-ponta-da-piedade-px-1392x928.jpg 1392w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo: Breno Barison \/ Pexels<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Where_to_Go_Next_from_Ponta_da_Piedade\"><\/span>Where to Go Next from Ponta da Piedade<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you&#8217;ve explored the cliffs from every angle, <strong>the Algarve offers dozens more places<\/strong> that would be a crime to miss.

Since 2024, there&#8217;s also a beautiful and completely safe wooden boardwalk along the coast, so you don&#8217;t have to worry about walking along the cliff edge.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1781504995001\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_many_steps_lead_to_the_ocean\"><\/span>How many steps lead to the ocean?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>From the viewing terrace at the lighthouse to the ocean surface, where small boats depart, <strong>there are approximately 180 to 200 narrow stone steps<\/strong>. Be careful not to confuse them with the nearby Camilo beach, where there are about 200 wooden steps.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1781504995002\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ponta_da_Piedade_or_Benagil_Cave\"><\/span>Ponta da Piedade or Benagil Cave?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Both places are amazing. Benagil offers <strong>one massive iconic cave with an opening in the ceiling<\/strong>, which looks most beautiful around noon. Ponta da Piedade, on the other hand, is an entire area with dozens of smaller caves and rock arches, which is most photogenic at sunrise and sunset. You can manage both in one day.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1781504995003\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Whats_the_best_way_to_explore_the_cliffs\"><\/span>What&#8217;s the best way to explore the cliffs?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>The best is to combine it. In the morning, walk around the viewpoints near the lighthouse on foot and then <strong>set off on a boat trip for about 15 to 22 euros<\/strong> to see the cliffs from below, from the water. If you&#8217;re more sporty, rent a kayak for 40 euros.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1781504995004\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_much_does_a_boat_trip_cost\"><\/span>How much does a boat trip cost?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Tickets for the small boat that takes you deep into the caves right from the cove below the stairs <strong>cost 15 to 20 euros in cash for 45 minutes<\/strong>. The larger, more comfortable boats from BlueFleet, which depart from the marina, cost 22.50 euros per adult.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1781504995005\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"When_is_it_least_crowded_there\"><\/span>When is it least crowded there?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>The greatest peace you&#8217;ll experience <strong>early in the morning at sunrise or conversely in the early evening<\/strong>. If you want to avoid the crowds completely, head here outside of the summer holidays. The winter months are surprisingly fantastic for visiting the cliffs and very photogenic.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1781504995006\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_there_an_entrance_fee_for_Ponta_da_Piedade\"><\/span>Is there an entrance fee for Ponta da Piedade?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>No, <strong>entry to the cliffs, the wooden promenade, and the viewing terrace by the lighthouse is completely free<\/strong>. Even parking right by the lighthouse is free, but in summer the car park fills up very quickly.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1781504995007\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_it_safe_for_children\"><\/span>Is it safe for children?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>The new wooden promenade is <strong>completely safe for families with children<\/strong>. However, be very careful near the unpaved cliff edges and don&#8217;t let children go to the edge alone, as the rocks can be unstable, especially after rain. There are no lifeguards in the bay and due to strong currents and boat traffic, swimming far from shore is not recommended.
