Located along the scenic boardwalk paths leading to the Lagos lighthouse, O Camilo is a sophisticated yet welcoming restaurant celebrated for its focus on the day's fresh catch. Guests are invited to choose their fish directly from a display case, which is then prepared simply to highlight its natural flavors. The menu extends beyond the grill to include delicacies like oysters, razor clams, and a highly-praised sardine spread. Unlike many traditional spots in the region, O Camilo also features a modern and creative cocktail list. The interior is elegant and modern, though the real draw is the outdoor seating overlooking the Atlantic. Whether you're stopping in after a coastal hike or booking a table for a special dinner, the combination of attentive service and a stunning cliffside backdrop makes for a quintessential Algarve dining experience.
