It is the essence of a Sagres wine tasting at dusk, and one of the Algarve&#8217;s few examples of slow food, raw nature and history combined into a memorable evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This guide will tell you what to expect, when to visit it, what you will taste and how to select the right tour from Lagos so you can book with confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_84 ez-toc-wrap-left counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/lagostransferservice.com\/blog\/sagres-wine-tasting-sunset-tour\/#What_is_the_Sagres_sunset_wine_tasting_experience\" >What is the Sagres sunset wine tasting experience?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/lagostransferservice.com\/blog\/sagres-wine-tasting-sunset-tour\/#Why_Cabo_de_Sao_Vicente_is_called_the_%E2%80%9CEnd_of_the_World%E2%80%9D\" >Why Cabo de S\u00e3o Vicente is called the &#8220;End of the World&#8221;<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/lagostransferservice.com\/blog\/sagres-wine-tasting-sunset-tour\/#When_is_the_best_time_for_sunset_in_Sagres\" >When is the best time for sunset in Sagres?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/lagostransferservice.com\/blog\/sagres-wine-tasting-sunset-tour\/#What_wine_and_food_will_you_taste_on_the_cliffs\" >What wine and food will you taste on the cliffs?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/lagostransferservice.com\/blog\/sagres-wine-tasting-sunset-tour\/#How_to_choose_your_Sagres_sunset_tour\" >How to choose your Sagres sunset tour<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/lagostransferservice.com\/blog\/sagres-wine-tasting-sunset-tour\/#How_to_get_to_the_Sagres_sunset_spots\" >How to get to the Sagres sunset spots<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-7\" href=\"https:\/\/lagostransferservice.com\/blog\/sagres-wine-tasting-sunset-tour\/#Tips_for_the_perfect_cliff-top_evening\" >Tips for the perfect cliff-top evening<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-8\" href=\"https:\/\/lagostransferservice.com\/blog\/sagres-wine-tasting-sunset-tour\/#Frequently_asked_questions\" >Frequently asked questions<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-9\" href=\"https:\/\/lagostransferservice.com\/blog\/sagres-wine-tasting-sunset-tour\/#Plan_your_Sagres_sunset_evening\" >Plan your Sagres sunset evening<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_Sagres_sunset_wine_tasting_experience\"><\/span>What is the Sagres sunset wine tasting experience?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A Sagres sunset wine tasting is a small, guided walk into the extreme west of Portugal, typically of two to three hours duration, that takes you from one of the local resorts, to Lagos. The light turns gold, your guide pours regional wine, puts the Algarve snacks on the table and stands on a known locals-only cliff top viewing point, overlooking the sunset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most excursions depart about 3 hours before sunset and allow for several photo stops at secret beaches and the Sagres fortress before the show! Our <a href=\"https:\/\/lagostransferservice.com\/tours\/private-sunset-tour-in-sagres\">private sunset tour in Sagres<\/a> has a maximum group size of 12 people, which ensures an intimate and relaxed evening rather than a hectic one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Cabo_de_Sao_Vicente_is_called_the_%E2%80%9CEnd_of_the_World%E2%80%9D\"><\/span>Why Cabo de S\u00e3o Vicente is called the &#8220;End of the World&#8221;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before the Age of Discovery, seafarers thought that this wind-swept headland was where the known world ended. The Romans called it Promontorium Sacrum \u2018the sacred promontory&#8217; and it was here that Prince Henry the Navigator is said to have plotted his great voyages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A red lighthouse, constructed in 1846, tops the cape today. It is one of the most powerful lighthouses in Europe, whose twin 1,000-watt lamps can be seen out at sea for 60 kilometres, according to Wikipedia. Here the cliffs are just 75 metres high above the sea, but further along the coastline they reach up to 140 metres, providing a true sense of standing on the edge of a continent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;re interested in the complete history and all the detours, you can read our <a href=\"https:\/\/lagostransferservice.com\/blog\/lagos-to-sagres-day-trip\/\">Lagos to Sagres day trip guide <\/a>and find out what to bring and what to expect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"When_is_the_best_time_for_sunset_in_Sagres\"><\/span>When is the best time for sunset in Sagres?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The best time is dependent on the season, since the sunset occurs approximately one minute earlier each day. If possible, get to the cliffs about 30-45 minutes before dusk to allow for the winding down and opening the wine and enjoy watching the colour shift across the Atlantic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Season<\/th><th>Approx. sunset time<\/th><th>What to expect<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Summer (Jun\u2013Jul)<\/td><td>~8:30\u20139:00 PM<\/td><td>Warm evenings, the biggest crowds<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Autumn (Sep\u2013Oct)<\/td><td>~7:00\u20138:00 PM<\/td><td>Mild air, golden light, fewer people<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Winter (Dec\u2013Jan)<\/td><td>~5:30\u20136:00 PM<\/td><td>Dramatic skies, bring warm layers<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Spring (Mar\u2013May)<\/td><td>~7:00\u20138:30 PM<\/td><td>Wildflowers and clear horizons<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The exact time of your date can be confirmed on timeanddate.com.

A well-crafted Algarve sunset tasting is not about a complicated menu, but about straightforward local food and drink that&#8217;s being served up in a responsible way. Some of these are to be expected:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Vinho Verde<\/strong>, Portugal&#8217;s light, faintly sparkling green wine<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A robust <strong>Alentejo red<\/strong> or a crisp local Algarve white<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A glass of <strong>Port wine<\/strong> as a sweeter alternative<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Chorizo with fresh bread<\/strong>, a cheese board, and local tapas<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A <strong>pastel de nata<\/strong> custard tart to finish on a sweet note<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Love to sample at the source?

Generally, these are the spaces where they can establish themselves:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>From Lagos:<\/strong> roughly 35 to 45 minutes by road, and by far the most popular starting point.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>From Portim\u00e3o and Praia da Luz:<\/strong> add 15 to 30 minutes; hotel pickups are simple to arrange.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>From Faro or the airport:<\/strong> about 90 minutes, best combined with a private transfer.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you don&#8217;t hire up a <a href=\"https:\/\/lagostransferservice.com\/transfers\">private transfer<\/a>, you will be looking for a spot to park while you&#8217;re at the cape, and missing out on the wine, so have a local guy guide you down the twisting street.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tips_for_the_perfect_cliff-top_evening\"><\/span>Tips for the perfect cliff-top evening<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Dress in layers.

It is the most south-western point of the continent of Europe, located in the province of Algarve and has one of the most formidable lighthouses in Europe, which is not to mention the excellent places to watch the sunset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Sagres or Lagos for sunset?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While Lagos has pretty cove sunsets, Sagres and Cabo de S\u00e3o Vicente provide open ocean drama as the sun sinks headlong into the Atlantic.
