Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Farol do Cabo de Sao Vicente, En 268, Sagres 8650-370 Portugal
Five kilometers from Sagres,
is the most south-western point of Europe: Cabo de São Vicente, the last piece of house where Portuguese sailors looked when they left for the unknown.
For the citizens of Rome, Cape St. Vincent was the “End of the World”,
a supernatural vortex where the setting sun was dramatically submerged by the vast and unknown ocean.
The myth persisted throughout the Middle Ages until a man decided to put an end to all this crazy nonsense and, with it, put an end to the Dark Ages: Infante D. Henrique, the Navigator, father of the Golden Age of Discovery in Portugal.

Stop At: Fortaleza de Sagres, 8650-360, Sagres Portugal
Sagres, crossing routes between the Mediterranean and the Atlantic Ocean,
port of fishermen and merchants from various nations, but also an area devastated by corsairs.
The imposing fortification of Sagres is the human extension of the natural rock and was for centuries the main battleground of a geo-strategic maritime defensive system.
The Portuguese expansion policy in the 15th and 16th centuries led to the foundation of Vila do Infante. Thus, Vila do Infante and Sagres become confused in the course of time.
