The
seaside village of Praia da Luz (pronounced loozh) lies in the western
Algarve, Portugal only 6km west of the city of Lagos. Traditionally it
has been a fishing village that specialised in octopus potting and Luz
once had a Tuna canning factory by the beach. There was an early
settlement hear and the Romans left their mark in the form of a bath
house and aqueduct.
Today Luz is a small yet thriving beach resort with numerous waterside
apartments & villas. The main attraction is Luz's beach with its arced
bay and stunning black igneous rock headland, left behind by the
volcanoes at Monchique. It is a small place with several local bars and
restaurants and 3 resort complexes with outdoor swimming pools and
tennis courts. Two water sports centers at the eastern end algarve praia
da luz of Luz beach rent out sailing boats, canoes and Luz also has a
deep-sea diving centre and camping site.
Luz is an ideal place to head out for walks in the hills and countryside
in the morning or late afternoon. It is also a great place to relax and
listen to the birds and watch people go by sipping coffee by the beach.
Time slips by slowly with the calm waves licking the golden sands and
towards sunset the beach is virtually deserted making it one of the best
times to swim in the clean Atlantic waters.
Outside of Luz you can make day trips to Lagos, Sagres and Monchique.

Lagos is at around 7PM from the bus stop by the church and Taxis back
are affordable costing around 7 Euros.

makes an ideal place to visit in the afternoon and evening. The Caldes

Madeline Mccann Is?
Madeleine McCann disappeared on the evening of Thursday, 3 May 2007 from
the resort of Praia da

apartment in the central area of the resort. Madeleine's parents have said that
they left her unsupervised in a ground floor bedroom with her
two-year-old

investigation by the
Polícia Judiciaria (PJ) (the Portuguese
criminal investigation police) concluded that she had been
abducted.After further investigation, the PJ stated that there was a
strong hypothesis that she might have died in her room. During the
investigation there were a number of unconfirmed claimed sightings of
Madeleine in Portugal and elsewhere and additional scientific evidence
was obtained. The investigation involved the co-operation of the British
and Portuguese police and demonstrated the differing methodologies
employed by each, with regard to such aspects as the amount of
information released to the public and the legal status of those
involved in the case. Robert
Murat, a local resident, was given arguido (suspect) status
on 15 May. Kate and Gerry McCann were also named as arguidos on 7
September, but were allowed to fly back to the United Kingdom on 9
September. All three were cleared, with their arguido status lifted, on
21 July 2008. The Portuguese Attorney General closed the case, without a
