Lagos: A City with History and Sea

9 April De 2025

Lagos is a city where history and the ocean have intersected for centuries. Originally called Lacobriga, it was inhabited by Celts, Romans and Arabs before becoming part of Portugal in 1249.

In the 15th century, Lagos was a focal point of the Age of Discovery, with caravels setting sail from its port for new lands. The trade in gold, ivory and spices brought wealth and growth, making it one of the most important cities in the Algarve.

Despite the damage caused by the 1755 earthquake, Lagos has retained its charm and connection to the sea. Today, it combines a rich heritage with stunning beaches, attracting visitors from all over the world.
