Cape St. Vincent (Cabo de São Vicente), next to the Sagres Point, on the so-called Costa Vicentina, is a headland in the municipality of Sagres, in the Algarve, southern Portugal.

Overview

Overlooking some of the Algarve’s most dramatic scenery, the small, elongated village of Sagres has an end-of-the-world feel, with its sea-carved cliffs high above the frothing ocean strung with wind-whipped fortresses that connect it to Portugal’s rich nautical past. It's the only place in the world where white storks are known to nest on cliff faces.
