Travel Itinerary

February swells wrap gently into Arrifana’s protected bay—perfect for beginners or rusty surfers. All gear included, plus local tips on the best post-surf coffee.

Start Europe’s south-westernmost hike along buff-topped cliffs with 50 m ocean views. The February sun is bright; bring a windbreaker.

End the cliff walk inside this 15th-century fortress perched over monster Atlantic swells. Spot surfers and foilers ripping the Sagres point break below.

Shallow, butter-flat lagoon plus consistent N-NW winds make this Europe’s winter wing-foil playground. Pro coaches on hand; foil, wing and wetsuit all included.

Refuel on grilled octopus & barnacle rice while watching your foil-mates still carving the lagoon. Simple, fresh, perfect.

Golden-hour glow on honey-coloured sea stacks. Climb the wooden steps or hire a SUP for water-level perspectives.

Blue-flag beach with multiple peaks and a beach-break that works on all tides. February line-ups are blissfully uncrowded.

Begin the cliff-top wooden boardwalk toward neighbouring Praia da Bordeira—sweeping ocean views and wildflowers.

Vast dune-backed beach perfect for a sundowner at the rustic beach bar. Watch kite-foilers cruise the horizon.

Paddle into cathedral-like sea caves before the crowds arrive. February seas are calm, water crystal-clear and kayaks easy to book on the beach.

Cliff-edge café serving seafood cataplana and chilled vinho verde—views straight into Algar-secos grottos.

4 km of sandy beach with side-on breeze—perfect for a chilled down-winder finishing at Lagos marina. Gear shuttles available.

Wander cobbled lanes hopping between tiny bars for petiscos, local wine and live fado drifting through doorways.

Stretch out on soft sand while the first rays light the cliffs—guided session with ocean soundtrack included.

Use your last full day to chase any missed waves or boost tacks on the inside. Local surf-shops store gear so you can grab lunch between sessions.

Tiny museum packed with retro boards and Algarve surf lore. Pick up a hand-shaped mini-mal key-ring for the folks back home.

Celebrate a week well spent with cataplana de marisco, local red and almond tart. Walk back along the moon-lit lagoon.

One last pastel de nata with sea views before the 45-min shuttle to Faro airport and your flight back to Munich.
