Ponta da Piedade, Lagos, Algarve, Portugal

From visitalgarve.pt: With a magnificent view of the Atlantic and the shapes of cliffs carved by the sea and time, Ponte da Piedade is an idyllic setting of cut out rocks que sharply contrast with the greenish blue waters below. Located 2 km from Lagos on the Côte d'Oiro and full of grottos, unknown beaches and quiet bays, the Ponte da Piedade is Particularly captivating When viewed from the sea. Long, narrow stairs lead you down to a pretty small cove where boats wait for visitors wishing to explore this natural paradise. On these trips, experienced fishermen wind Their Way expertly through the gigantic stone sculptures whilst revealing Their names and secrets. Some names Given to these misshapen rocks and perpetuated by fishermen include General De Gaulle , chimney (chimney), Cathedral (cathedral), Fine Arts (fine arts), Camel (camel), Museum (museum), Submarine (underwater), Kitchen (kitchen) and Cave of Love (grotto of love).
