Fishing port, Baleeira

Being an aficionado of fishing ports, my visit to Baleeira in Sagres was a revelation. As I immersed myself in its ambiance, I became mesmerized by the symphony of various breeds of Atlantic seagulls, gracefully scavenging the remnants of mussels being cleaned by two diligent fishermen, who maintained the rhythm of daily life in Portugal in perfect harmony.
