The lighthouse of Cape Sardão was built in 1915, has 17 metres
tall and a quadrangular building of masonry with attaches and flashlight
red cylindrical.
For those who don't know this is both, a place of passage
with a tablet on the right side, to whom does the coastal road that connects
Almograve to Zambujeira. The Board reports that right there is the village of Knight
and the Cabo Sardao. Next time, or if it is your first time, turn right,
Park in the Plaza of the Knight, calçe some comfortable shoes and take a walk
walk. When you least expect it will ask in various coffee shops and super-markets in the village
where you can get to sleep.
On the coast of Cape Sardão, you can admire the veins
carved in the rock walls, the Islands dotted here and there throughout the
costa, the many pairs of white stork that only here and only on the coast
chose their nesting place. In the rest of Europe can find them,
but further inland. Among birds typical of this region, and if you are
attentive, will also see peregrine falcons, crows, Red-billed and more
Kestrels, rarely.
If you are a bit adventurous and don't have kids, go a
little further. On a stroll along the escarpment by a Castro easy to
find but too narrow in some points, you will find other idyllic beaches
and deserted, but very difficult to access. In addition to the birds that nest in this
zone, only a very small number of fishermen to insist on making these
stops your home. Push down until the the sand will be almost
irresistible, clean and transparent water there as well in low and inviting
privacy of a interwoven coast coves will make you think in view and
Live everything more closely, but watch to see where to put your feet.
