Visit Sines in 2024

Located between Lisbon and the Algarve, Sines serves as both a historical monument and a modern-day industrial hub. The town's dual nature is evident the moment you arrive: ancient fortifications juxtapose against one of Portugal's largest commercial ports. Yet, despite its industrial leanings, Sines has preserved its unique charm and offers a host of tourist attractions.
The Sines Castle, overlooking the ocean, not only provides panoramic views but also houses a museum dedicated to Vasco da Gama. As a coastal town, Sines takes pride in its selection of beaches like Praia Vasco da Gama and Praia de São Torpes, each offering a unique experience whether you're looking for surfing, swimming, or simply basking in the sun.
Culture thrives in Sines, particularly during the annual FMM Sines - Festival Músicas do Mundo, one of the largest world music festivals in Portugal. The culinary scene is also noteworthy, with a focus on fresh seafood, such as grilled sardines, cod, and other local catches.
