The Ponta da Piedade is an impressive rock formation on the coast near Lagos, in the Algarve, Portugal. The area is known for its jagged cliffs, crystal-clear sea, caves, and natural arches, carved by wind and water. Its beauty is best appreciated by boat, kayak, or from the clifftop trails, which offer spectacular views of the Atlantic Ocean.
