The highlights of the tour with Eurobike

Cape St. Vincent: An absolutely fascinating place awaits you right at the start of your tour - the Cabo de São Vicente. Towering cliffs and a lighthouse create a magical natural spectacle when the waves lash against the rocks. At the time of the seafarers, the cape was considered the end of the world, as they did not yet know what lay beyond the endless expanses of the sea.

Lively cities around Lagos, Albufeira and Faro: enjoy life in the streets of the famous Algarve cities. Music, laughter and the hustle and bustle of the markets, restaurants and stores form the perfect contrast to tranquil olive groves, pine forests and picturesque bays.

The Ria Formosa Nature Park: The lagoon landscape in the east of the Algarve is known for its sand dunes, small islands and special flora and fauna. As it is determined by the tides, the terrain is constantly changing. Numerous bird species breed their young here, and with a bit of luck you may even see flamingos.
