The Grottos of Lagos, Portugal

Posted by mark on 12/13 at 12:30 PM

Visitors to Lagos, Portugal should not miss the incredible ocean grottos in the seaside town of Lagos, Portugal.  Locals abound to take you on a guided tour of this beautiful area, which is not to be missed.  Today’s video is from YouTube user Shaudin and shows very nicely the wonders of the grottos.  Be sure not to miss it.

The Lagos Grottos in Portugal are called, Grutas da Costa d’Oiro.  To learn more about Lagos, Portugal, please read its Wikipedia entry

Lagos (pron. IPA: [’laguʃ], literally “Lakes") is a city and a municipality at the mouth of the river Bensafrim in the southern region of Algarve, in Portugal. The municipality has a total population of 27,041 inhabitants. The majority of the population lives along the coastal line and works in tourism and services. The inland region in sparsely inhabited, with the majority of the people working in agriculture and forestry.

Lagos is located approximately 35 kilometers east of the southwesternmost point of Europe, the locality of Sagres Point. To the north of Lagos stands the road to Milfontes and Sines, that winds through the scenic protected landscape of the Southwest Natural Park.

Lagos’ economy, like many coastal towns in Portugal, has always been closely linked to the sea, and fishing has been an important activity since very ancient times. Since 1960, the city has embraced tourism, which has become its most important economic activity. It has beautiful beaches, good climate, the sea, a scenic coastline, and historical patrimony. It also has plenty of cultural and night-life entertainment venues. Many local traditions are celebrated, ranging from architecture to gastronomy and handicrafts.

In gastronomy, there are the local specialties: Dom rodrigos and morgados cookies based on local products, such as almonds, figs and eggs. Lagos is also a wine producing region and is famous for its moscatel wine, and also for a strong alcoholic spirit, the aguardente de medronho, made of berries of strawberry tree.

Hi everyone

I am a new member and really would appreciate some advice. for past two years I have been befriending an alcoholic. It really has been the most tragic story - this lady was only 52 and a doctor also. Anyway I have been to see her practically every day for past two years. She died suddenly last week.

The post mortem showed she died of liver failure. What I would like to know is ..................and this is what is torturing me. When I found her she was sitting in exact same position I had left her in. Also going on what she had drunk since I had last saw her day before - tells me she has died probably an hour or so after I left...... What actually happens when someone dies of liver failure? I have been torturing myself that she would have been in agony or having some sort of seizure/attack?

I am so sorry to be so morbid but this is tearing me apart. She only had me. She had more money than all my family and friends put together but she had nothing. She was terrified of life.
Regards, Richardson
