Travelling from Sagres

Sagres is one of the Algarve’s most distinctive destinations.

Located close to the southwestern edge of mainland Europe, the region combines dramatic Atlantic cliffs, surf beaches, hiking routes, maritime history and a much quieter atmosphere than many of the Algarve’s larger resorts.

Martinhal Sagres

Private collection can be arranged directly from Martinhal Sagres Beach Family Resort.

The resort is particularly popular with families and travellers looking for beaches, outdoor activities and a peaceful setting close to Sagres.

Surfing in Sagres

Sagres and the surrounding western Algarve are among Portugal’s best-known surf areas.

Its position between the south and west coasts gives surfers access to beaches with different orientations and varying exposure to Atlantic swell.

Well-known beaches around the Sagres area include:

  • Praia do Tonel
  • Praia do Beliche
  • Praia da Mareta
  • Beaches towards Vila do Bispo and the western Algarve

Travelling with Surfboards

Surfboards can be transported subject to available vehicle capacity.

Please tell us in advance if you are travelling with:

  • Surfboards
  • Longboards
  • Board bags
  • Wetsuit equipment
  • Bicycles
  • Golf clubs
  • Large sports bags
  • Other oversized luggage

Advance notice allows us to allocate a vehicle with sufficient capacity for both passengers and equipment.

Cape St Vincent

Cape St Vincent is one of the western Algarve’s most recognisable landmarks.

Its lighthouse and dramatic cliffs overlook the Atlantic near the southwestern edge of mainland Europe.

Sunset at Cape St Vincent

Cape St Vincent is particularly famous for sunset.

Visitors gather near the cliffs to watch the sun disappear over the Atlantic, creating one of the region’s most memorable natural experiences.

Collection from the wider Cape St Vincent area may be possible when arranged in advance.

Add Sightseeing Before Your Flight

If your flight departs later in the day, your airport transfer can include sightseeing before continuing to Faro Airport.

For this journey, we recommend:

Lagos · Silves

Both destinations provide very different experiences and can be incorporated individually or together when your flight schedule allows.

Which Stops Can Be Combined?

Because this is an airport transfer, your flight departure time should always determine how much sightseeing is practical.

Strong options include:

  • Lagos only for coastal scenery and a historic town.
  • Silves only for castle history and traditional Algarve culture.
  • Lagos + Silves for a varied coastal and historical itinerary.
  • Carvoeiro only for a relaxed scenic coastal detour.
  • Lagos + Carvoeiro for travellers primarily interested in the Algarve coastline.
  • Silves + Carvoeiro for history followed by coastal scenery.

For most travellers, one sightseeing stop is the best option before a flight.

Two stops can work when departure is later in the day and sufficient time has been reserved.

How Much Time Should We Allow Before Our Flight?

When booking an airport transfer, please provide your flight departure time.

We will always recommend allowing sufficient time for:

  • The road journey
  • Traffic
  • Check-in
  • Security
  • Luggage drop
  • Any selected sightseeing stops

Sightseeing should never be planned so tightly that it creates unnecessary risk of missing a flight.

If your flight departs early, we strongly recommend booking a direct transfer to Faro Airport.

Arriving at Faro Airport

Faro Airport is the main international airport serving the Algarve.

Your driver will take you directly to the appropriate departures area.

Travelling with Large Luggage

Please declare large or unusual luggage before booking.

This is especially important for:

  • Surfboards
  • Longboards
  • Golf clubs
  • Bicycles
  • Pushchairs
  • Multiple large suitcases
  • Sports equipment

The correct vehicle category depends on both the number of passengers and luggage volume.

Families and Child Seats

Child seats are available on request and are included.

Please provide the children’s ages when booking so that suitable seats can be prepared.
