Sagres

Sagres, (Algarve Region) Portugal

This magnificent rocky coastline makes up the southwestern most tip of Portugal and forms yet another part of the 110 kilometers of the Southwest Alentejo and Vicentine Coast Natural Park.  The land has almost no vegetation at all here and is quite flat, abruptly dropping several meters when it reaches the Atlantic Ocean.  When standing at the edge of these cliffs, it seems as if you were standing at the end of the Earth!  It's really quite impressive to see in person!
