Sagres is a truly tranquil town with beautiful beaches, a picturesque harbour at Baleeira, a very pretty square, Praça da República, and stunning views. It is very popular in summer with visitors, but all year round with fishermen and surfers because of the western Atlantic waters creating such good waves for surfing. agres perfect for walking, cycling, surfing, diving or generally getting a taste of the Algarve that is still relatively untouched by tourism. It is certainly very popular with the campervan / mobile home owners as there are always lots of them parked overlooking Mareta beach, with their occupants relaxing in deck chairs outside in the sunshine, at whatever time of the year we visit and what a view it is!
