				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When thinking about holidays, <strong>Algarve</strong> is the word that instantly pops up in my mind. What a better and stunning destination to spend incredible and unforgettable moments than this amazing, sunny and welcoming place? Enjoy the perfect vacation, always relying on <a href="http://www.low-cost-transfers.com/faro-airport/" target="_blank"><strong>Low Cost Transfers</strong></a> for safe and hussle free transfers services!</p>
<p><strong>Ferragudo</strong> is a tranquil charming village situated on the Arade estuary, rich in breathtaking landscapes, with an unbelievable picturesque atmosphere and lovely whitewashed cottages with astonishing hillside streets.<br />
Originally a traditional fishing village with a very warm and welcoming people, cute boats, fascinating tales and stories, this incredible place managed to preserve its traditional and unique spirit and to flourish the same time.<br />
This rare gem can be admired and visited anytime of the year, while discovering new things and trying a wide range of new activities like cycling to the lighthouse, or snorkeling amongst Atlantic marine life, there’s plenty of amazing things to do in Ferragudo!</p>
<p><strong>Monchique</strong> village is another fairy tale place, which will immediately and irrevocably win your heart and is worth visiting if you spend your holidays in Algarve.<br />
Monchique is the highest village of the Algarve, located 485 meters above sea level located in the Algarve and it perfectly preserves the touch of past times, as well as its old and peaceful soul.<br />
Monchique is the perfect destination to take a moment of reflection, to feel the nature, to think, to take a deep breath and to embrace the wonders this enchanting place has to offer.<br />
It is said the Romans populated Monchique due the Monchique mountains’s healing water. Even nowadays the village is highly sought after by visitors due to natural thermal baths, which are still believed to have healing properties.</p>
<p>One of the most beautiful and special beaches from Algarve, <strong>Odeceixe beach</strong> is located in the muncipality of Aljezur and it’s part of the Costa Vicentina natural park.<br />
Its atypical horseshoe shape is one of the numerous interesting and fascinating things about this famous beach, which doesn’t cease to amaze us especially through its unspoilt quality, Odeceixe beach remaining quite &#8220;hidden&#8221; and &#8220;undiscovered&#8221;.<br />
You will definitely fall in love with the fine sands, the crystal clear waters, the whitewashed clifftop village and the small lagoons which appear in the sand during low tide.<br />
The Ribeira de Seixe river is partly what makes Praia de Odeceixe so beautiful. On one side of the beach there is the ocean and on the other side is the river, Ribeira de Seixe actually separating the regions of Algarve and Alentejo.</p>
<p>If you’re an explorer and you enjoy the adventures, walks and new discoveries on each holiday, this place is the perfect destination where you can practise you skills and enjoy your hobbies.<br />
The<strong> Seven Hanging Valleys Trail</strong> is a scenic coastal trail located in Algarve with spectacular views, stunning coves and memorable sunsets which will take your breath away!<br />
The best way to explore them? On foot! There are many coastal walks along Portugal’s southern coast, but the Seven Hanging Valleys Trail is among the most impressive. This almost 12km trail offers a lot of attractions, a quality time and outstanding landscapes while enjoying nature and tranquility away from the crowded and loud cities.</p>
<p>Located a few kilometres northwest of Sagres is the historic <strong>Cabo de Sao Vicente</strong>, which is the most south-westerly point of mainland Europe.<br />
This magnificent place cannot be missed, especially at sunset when everything is magically transformed in memories, moments, unforgettable images and colors.<br />
You just cannot unsee the memorable red lighthouse, which houses a small but excellent museum showcasing Sagres&#8217; role in Portugal’s maritime history and which promises incredible memories.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today we’ll take a bit of time to talk about the main Sagres tourist attractions, this not so very well-known of Algarve towns has some interesting places to visit that you may not be aware of, because it isn’t well known on the tourist guides.</p>
<p>The town is located at just five kilometers from <strong>Cabo de Sao Vicente</strong> and is has the distinction of being the country’s most southwesterly point, and implicitly Europe’s as well. This is and has been a place of particular meaning for both the Portuguese as well as others. It is said that this is where <strong>Henry the Navigator</strong> founded his school of seamanship during the 15<sup>th</sup> century which assembled Portugal’s major geographers, cartographers and astronomers to put their heads together. However there aren’t very many signs left that would suggest this was anything physical or stable, more likely this was a place where the various experts would meet on various occasions, without a proper purpose.</p>
<p><span id="more-1514"></span></p>
<p>Sagres lies on a very rocky plateau which ends rather abruptly at the coast in the shape of steep cliffs of up to 150 meters in height.</p>
<p>Tourism hasn’t yet gotten such a solid foothold in Sagres – event though you will surely find hotels and private guest houses both in and around the town – but it is nowhere near comparable with the tourist infrastructure in the resorts further east on the coast. This might be due both to the town’s extreme location, as well as its very raw climate, but there are many out there who love that.</p>
<p><strong>Fortaleza de Sagres</strong></p>
<p>This fortress is located on a narrow promontory that reaches out into the sea, the spot having been important to the Romans who called it Promontorium Sacrum – or the Sacred Promontory because they thought it to be the home of the gods. The fortress that you’ll see today is still a major focal point in the history of Portuguese discovery and conquest of the 15<sup>th</sup> and 16<sup>th</sup> centuries.</p>
<p>The fortress features a few other related attractions such as the <strong>Windrose</strong>, the<strong> Igreja Matriz de Sao Clemente</strong> and there’s also a Visitor Center.</p>
<p>But the main Sagres tourist attraction that people come here for, is the very raw nature, and what better way to experience everything that this place has to offer than with the help of some <a href="http://www.carrentalalgarve.com/">Algarve car rental</a> services.</p>
