Aviso de Viaje
Be careful with the currents on the beaches on the west coast (Sagres/Aljezur), which are much stronger than in the south. Don't get too close to the edge of the cliffs, as the limestone rock can be unstable. If you rent a car, make sure you understand the electronic toll system on the A22 motorway (Via do Infante). It is recommended to reserve a table at popular coastal restaurants at least 24 hours in advance during summer.
