Lagos is 8 km away, about 5 minutes by car, and there is a cheap and frequent bus service from Luz to Lagos and other beaches nearby. Lagos has a wonderful waterside promenade, a marina and is flanked by lovely beaches on either side. The old city walls are virtually intact and they contain a myriad of narrow paved and cobbled streets many of which are lined with shops, restaurants and cafe bars which spill out onto the pavement.
Lagos reveals many layers of history and you can visit ancient churches, forts and a former slave market and imagine the Portuguese sailors setting sail in the from here in the 1400s to discover the Americas. Nearby Lagos Zoo is a hit with children, and there are several water parks and Zoo Marine about 30 minutes drive the east.
If you decide to hire a car you will have the chance to see the wonderful coastline to the west with huge cliffs, often towering over beautiful sandy coves and beaches, pretty fishing villages and some brilliant little restaurants serving fresh local fish, meats and wines.
