Lagos
EUROPE · SIESTA · GOLDEN CLIFFS
The Algarve's golden headlands, sea caves and beach-bar evenings — pocket-sized and perfect.
The plan
Ponta da Piedade at sunrise
The famous golden stacks glow at first light — and the boardwalk stairs are empty.
Kayak the caves
Paddle through arches and grottoes below the cliffs. Morning water is glass.
Praia do Camilo
Two hundred wooden steps down to the Algarve's prettiest small beach.
Old town evenings
Inside the 16th-century walls: cobbles, seafood cataplana, and bars that go late.
Benagil by boat
The cathedral-dome sea cave is a short trip east — go early, the swell picks up.
