The body of a woman has been found by walkers at the base of a cliff in Sagres.
The dead woman, said to be of Asian appearance, may have been on Beliche beach for as long as 24 hours with Correio da Manhã saying that everything points to her having slipped at the cliff-top and fallen to her death.
The woman, who was wearing outdoor clothing appropriate for walking, has yet to be reported missing by friends of family and police have no clues yet as to her identity, finding only a set of keys for a Ford vehicle that has yet to be located.
The body was taken by the lifeboat service to Baleeira port in Sagres and then transported by ambulance to Portimão where an autopsy will be carried out.
