We regret to inform our readers that the fort, which has stood on guard over the centuries, has suffered from erosion of the cliff face in the winter of 2002/03.
Because of inadequate lighting,the grounds are now considered dangerous
Neither we, nor the Pousadagroup, are currently accepting reservations.
The hotel will accept reservations from able bodied callers who have visited and seen the dangers before reservation

This area is of historical importance due to the 15th century School of Navigation established here by Henry the Navigator.
This quickly became a centre of excellence attracting the best mariners in the country and enabled the Portuguese discoveries of the Atlantic Islands, Brazil and the route around South Africa to the far East.
The ruined Fortaleza in Sagres contained the school and Henry the Navigator's house.
It has an enormous wind rose - a stone compass set into the ground. With a diameter of 43 metres it was used for training young seamen navigation skills.
The bay in front of the Pousada often has ships at anchor, waiting for
favourable winds and tides to round the corner into the Atlantic and make
the journey to Northern Europe.
North of Sagres is the beautiful 17th century church of Vila do Bispo,
its interior completely covered in gilding or azulejos (tiles).
Six kilometres from Sagres is the most south western point in Europe, Cabo Sao Vicente.
This dramatic headland is a haven for bird life especially during the migration period.
Stand on the end of the world and watch the sun sink into the rushing Atlantic waves.
The luxurious Pousada do Infante has built up an excellent reputation
for its seafood cuisine using local produce, and dining in its restaurant
is an experience not to be missed.
The Pousada has 50 rooms and 1 suite and has air conditioning.
A swim in the sea water swimming pool, or taking coffee on the terrace will make you forget the usual hustle and bustle of other Algarve resorts.
Activities available at the Pousada and in the area include swimming, tennis, golf, water sports, hand gliding, deep sea fishing.
