The best place arround lagos is in Sagres. I think you must rent a car!
I have not been to Nigeria myself but a mate who has, says be very careful its not that safe.
I give up!!!!!!!!!!
This is the Portugal/Algarve forum.
Lagos is an historic town in the Algarve in Southern Portugal after which the town of Lagos in Nigeria was named 500 years ago!!!!!!!!!!
It is safe and definitely a lot safer than Lagos, Nigeria!!!
Having got that sorted!
The question on surfing!
Khoutek is right - The best surfing beaches are on the west coast of the Algarve about 30km west of Lagos between Vila de Bispo/Praia de Amado and Carrapateira.
You will need a car to get there. There are no buses that run anywhere these beaches.

We're definitely surfing in Lagos, ah ah ah!
Lagos is on the South coast of the Algarve which is no good for surfing :-(
In Portugal only the west coast is "surfable", where Sagres is. But go there, and along Algarve's west coast and you'll see the most beautiful beaches of Europe. Ocean, waves, cliffs, sand, an impressive sunset, no houses behind.
Thank you all for the info,
Will
For anyone looking to buy or rent a vacation home, Lagos has several agencies and services catering to its large ex-pat community. When I was there, asking prices did not seem that outrageous compared to other parts of Western Europe.
This is a very basic Portugese restaurant just up from Praia Dona Ana. It doesn't look too great from the outside, but the steaks are something else! They do the most amazing kebabs, too, and you get vast portions of food at a very reasonable price.
You will even get a bottle of dessert wine to keep you company free of charge while you are paying your bill! Any steak will be cooked to perfection, but try the Brazilian style.
There are several interesting statues erected to the famous figures of the past that are associated with the history of this town. None more controversial that the sculpture of Dom Sebastião standing in the main square in front of the Town Hall. A more recent statue commemorates the Algarve’s only Saint, São Gonçalo de Lagos, who was born in 1360 and died in 1422 in Torres Vedras. Pope Pio VI raised him to Sainthood in 1778.
Lagos is a little touristic town in Algarve, south Portugal.
Nice baeches with gorgeous cliffs, good weather and active nightlife.
Many foreing and portugeese tourists come here because of the surf.
