From Lisbon to the Algarve the long way round: fishing villages, surf beaches and cliffs that drop straight into the Atlantic. Five days, four hundred kilometres and not one motorway.



Our stops
- Ericeira — surf and grilled sardines
- Comporta — rice fields and empty beaches
- Vila Nova de Milfontes — a river mouth made for swimming
- Odeceixe — where Alentejo becomes Algarve
- Sagres — the edge of the map
Rent the smallest car you can. Some of these village streets were designed for donkeys.
