Complete Sagres Travel Guide
Sagres is situated at the extreme western tip of the Algarve and is unlike any other destination in southern Portugal. Known for its barren, wind-swept landscapes, towering cliffs, and raging Atlantic seas, it attracts surfers, nature lovers, and those seeking a raw, authentic experience away from the mass tourism resorts.
How to get from Faro Airport to Sagres?
The distance from Faro Airport to Sagres is approximately 116 km (72 miles). The journey takes about 1 hour and 20 minutes via the A22 highway (Via do Infante). Because it is the furthest point from the airport, public transport is challenging, often requiring multiple changes (Airport → Faro City → Lagos → Sagres) and taking over 4 hours. A private transfer is by far the fastest and most comfortable option.
Top Things to Do
