Signing up quickly is strongly recommended
Registrations have opened for the nearly 200 activities that make up the Sagres Birdwatching Festival, which will take place between October 3 and 6.
Organisers recommend signing up quickly as spaces are limited and the activities are very popular. Among them are bird ringing events, birdwatching, boat trips, hikes, workshops, lectures, as well as novelties such as a virtual reality experience. Most events are free, although some do require the payment of a registration fee.
This year’s edition will also feature two new venues for activities: the Vila do Bispo Interpretation Centre and the Vila do Bispo Museum, offering participants an “even richer and more diversified experience.”
“For those who have not yet decided where to stay during the festival days, our accommodation partners are offering special prices for participants. This is an excellent opportunity to ensure a comfortable and affordable stay, making the most of everything the festival has to offer,” the organisers add.
The festival’s full programme can be consulted online.
The Sagres Birdwatching Festival is organised by the Municipality of Vila do Bispo in partnership with the Portuguese Society for the Study of Birds (SPEA) and the Almargem Association.
