    Farol de Sagres is a prominent lighthouse on the southwestern tip of Portugal. It is known as a beacon of maritime history, guiding ships along the rugged coastline since its construction in the late 19th century. The lighthouse is part of the Sagres Point, a site of great historical significance as it was once the location of Prince Henry the Navigator's navigation school.

      A small lighthouse on this rocky headland.
      This lighthouse stands on the old Sagres Fortress, about 50 meters from the cliffs. It's not really worth visiting. You'll inevitably pass it when visiting the fortress—if you take the 3 km circular walk. No special footwear is necessary.

        A tour of the fortress is really fun. Lots of great views of the high cliffs.
