Portugal Day 5

The villas were much easier to navigate in the morning daylight and breakfast included fresh orange juice from nearby groves. We bussed to Sagres, the site of a fortress and school for navigators founded by King Henry. Students took dramatic photos and video of the deep blue waters and waves crashing against the steep and jagged coastline. 


Lunch was in Lagos, the regional capital, and about half of the group took a boat tour of the cliffs and coastal caves. We skirted in and out of grottos and admired the staircases built to access the secluded beaches. Most of the students HAD to have gelato before returning to the villas, so we made it back to the hotel for dinner and rest after sunset!
