Family vacation

Experience a relaxing place where everyone feels at home, with plenty of space to enjoy the sun, the sea and quality time together.

What families enjoy most
Lagos is a wonderful destination for families who enjoy a mix of nature, fun and relaxed days together. Spend time on the wide, child‑friendly beaches such as Meia Praia, Praia Dona Ana or Praia do Camilo, where the water is calm and perfect for swimming. Take a family boat trip to the famous Ponta da Piedade caves, an unforgettable experience for children and adults alike.

For a day full of excitement, visit Zoo de Lagos, explore the Lagos Science Center (Centro Ciência Viva) with its hands‑on exhibits, or head to Slide & Splash, one of the Algarve’s best waterparks. Families also love the mini‑train that runs through Lagos, a fun way to explore the town without too much walking.

Prefer something more relaxed? Wander through the historic center for ice cream, small boutiques and lively squares, or enjoy the marina with its playgrounds and space to run around.

For a special family outing, take the kids to Praia do Porto de Mós for bodyboarding, or visit Sagres for a mix of nature, views and a real “end of the world” feeling.
