Cape S.Vicente is the south-westernmost point in continental Europe and the place from where our brave forefathers sailed on their caravels seeking new peoples and continents five centuries ago!
Then you will cycle along the Algarve Wild West Coast and discover incredible beaches and stunning wild sceneries.
