Because of Vila do Bispo's unique location, on the edge of the Natural Parque, a short distance from the south coast, only five minutes from most westerly point in mainland Europe and a stone’s throw from the stunning west coast beaches, it provides an excellent location for walkers, birders, horse-riders, cyclists as well as those looking for a peaceful beach holiday. Sagres is only 6km away and Lagos, a 20 min drive. There are restaurants, a farmers market and a selection of local stores within walking distance. This area is famous for its excellent assortment of beaches, all set within the Natural Parque. A great area for walkers, golfers (Parque Da Floresta is just 5 minutes away), cyclists, horse riders, surfers and birdwatchers. Try Googling any of these beaches to get a flavour of what the area has to offer - Arrifana, Cordoama, Castelejo, Zavial, Ingrina.

Coast/Beach
The coast, which extends to the north and east of Cabo de São Vicente (Cape St. Vincent) is dotted with more than 20 beaches. Some are sandy coves hidden at the foot of cliffs, others broad expanses of sand that stretch away to the horizon. Each has its own particular charm. All invite you to discover them and to rediscover peace and solitude. Barranco, Ingrina, Zavial, Boca do Rio, Burgau, Cabanas Velhas, Castelejo, Mareta, Baleeira, Martinhal, Mouranitos, Barriga and Cordama and many more.
Golf
Parque da Floresta 5 mins away. Located amongst rolling, hilly terrain near the south-western tip of Portugal, the 'Land's End' of Continental Europe. The layout, designed by former Spanish amateur champion Pepe Gancedo, architect of the well-known Torrequebrada course near Malaga in Spain, was virtually carved out of the hills and many of the natural contours were retained. Unlike most courses, the controversial Parque da Floresta has an infinite variety of holes, each one with individual character.
Quinta da Boavista 15 mins away. Designer Howard Swan has successfully integrated his layout into the existing natural terrain, using the very features that make Boavista a delight to the eye. In addition to the 18-hole championship golf course and driving range, there is a teaching academy. This is a golf course that has all the attributes to fulfil the expectations of all golfers - irrespective of their playing overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and the historic town of Lagos.
