Portugal
he harbour remains the beating heart of the small town of Sagres, gateway to the Southwest Alentejo and Vicentine Coast Natural Park. This was the cradle of Portugal’s Age of Discovery from the 15th to the 17th century, but (known as ‘goose barnacles’) are perhaps one of the most curious-looking. The crustaceans are harvested from the rocks and are a local delicacy, best enjoyed lightly boiled and served with a cold glass of at the beachside Mar à Vista restaurant.
