The town of Lagoa is situated on a flat land that is surrounded by a hill, inland from Carvoeiro; tradition says that this land used to be a lagoon (lagoa) in the past. At the top of the hill, you can admire the tower of a beautiful church. Every August the Fatacil is held in the town; Fatacil is a commercial and rural exhibition that demonstrates products from all over Portugal. In addition, visitors can watch and enjoy many singers and bands.
A hill rises above flat lands where in days gone by, as tradition has it, there was a lagoon. At the top, the tower of a church is visible, above a labyrinth of whitewashed houses. This is Lagoa, where Manueline doorways, windows edged in blue and the imposing turret of the monastery create a feeling that time has stopped and suggest ways of life now long forgotten. The town grew up around its main church. There is still a feeling of the past in the streets of white houses where, here and there, it is possible to spy a chimney trimmed with the delicate decorative filigree typical of the Algarve. The winding streets are dotted with altars marking the Stations of the Cross used in the old Holy Week ceremonies, and more) than a dozen Manueline doorways and windows (16th century).
