Discovery the history of modern Portimão, born during the reign of D. Afonso V (1463) with the granting of privileges to a town that would eventually receive the name of Vila Nova de Portimão and be surrounded by walls. Apart of the period of expansion during the Discoveries, Portimão grew with international trade, energized by navigation on the African coast. However, the earthquake of 1755 brought great destruction to the city, followed by a reduction of economic activity that would only regain new vigor at the end of the century with the development of trade and export of nuts, milling, fishing and fish preserving. Portimão was promoted to city status in 1924 by the then President of the Republic, the Portimonian writer Manuel Teixeira Gomes.

Enjoy an exclusive experience along the wildest coast of Portugal.

We continue with a walk through a charming fishermen's village with white houses along a long sandy beach, a real paradise for cats who are eagerly awaiting the arrival of fish! At the end of the morning, we visit Cape St Vincent and its legendary lighthouse before a free lunch in Sagres (packed lunch or restaurant) where the atmosphere is like the end of the world, a real VIP spot for surfers who brave the powerful waves. In the afternoon, we stop at the fishing port with its colourful boats and take a track that leads us along the spectacular "fishermen's path". Photo stops at the most beautiful viewpoints of the Natural Park and a walk on the side of a cliff that is more than 80 mètres high will be an unforgettable moment synonymous with letting go and unique shots for photo lovers. We will then reach the highest natural belvedere of the Costa Vicentina, 154 mètres above the tumult of the ocean, which offers a breathtaking view of the rocky coast.
