Southern Europe - Day 11

We've got as far west as we're going to get.

We're sat in a carpark on a wind swept headland just outside Sagres, with sea on both sides of us. This is the far most south westerly point of Portugal and probably the furthest from home we'll be all tour. We're in the Algarve and the home of Portuguese surf. Sadly it's gone flat.

Had a 200 mile drive down today. Pretty easy going on the motorway. It was almost boring compared to the mountain roads of the last few days.

Sagres is undeveloped and wild - especially compared to Lisbon yesterday. We've had a wander down town and there's not much there. It reminds me strongly of Lacanau and Hossegor in France.

Hoping tomorrow there's some swell as this will probably be my last chance for some waves this tour.

Cali wise - the seats should be patterned to stop water stains showing so much. Hopefully the Super Guard will do it's trick when we get home.

  1. Blakey when collecting our Cali were advised to clean seats with clean chamois leather & water - worked so far! Fingers crossed for surf tomoz! S & K
