Promo Walking Tour from April to September
Imagine sailing in 1680 along a dangerous and rocky coast, with no guide but a compass and determination to conquer the unknown. Thus the Portuguese arrived in this corner of the world, facing relentless tides to settle in strategic territory.
I found out how, despite construction difficulties, marked social differences and the challenges of trade in a fledgling wholesale market, they managed to leave a deep mark. Every stone tells its story.
Let the unique architecture tell you about the past: stone walls, narrow streets and fortresses designed to defend the conquered. Touring this place, you don’t just see history: you live it, you feel it, you breathe it.

Porton de CampoPass-by Only
Go through the old field gate and I felt the past engulf you. Walk through the gunboat and discover the imposing Bastion of St. Michael, silent witness to centuries of history. Let the mystique of the iconic Street of Sighs transport you back to another era, amid worn-out cobblestones and walls that still whisper secrets. Surround the Plaza Mayor as you admire the ancient monastery and the majestic silhouette of the lighthouse clipping against the sky. Each step through its cobblestone streets is a living chapter of the historical account of a unique place, where time seems to have stopped.
