Tavira is one of the Algarve's oldest and most beautiful towns. It's a quirky gem with a hilltop castle, 39 surviving churches and chapels, jumbly houses, towers, medieval battlements and famous roman bridge. Elegant cafes spill out onto streets lined with feathery pepper tress and its restaurants serve the best seafood on the coast. There are plenty of cosy restaurants to relax and enjoy the wonderful selection of fresh seafood accompanied by the famous Portuguese wines. Illa da Tavira (Tavira Island) 2km from Tavira, is an island beach connected to the mainland by ferry. Walk 2km beside the river to the ferry terminal at Quatro Aguas or take the (summer-only) bus.
Portugal's sunny southern coast continues to cast its magic over all those who visit the area. The Algarve boasts around 100 miles of golden sandy coast washed clean by the azure Atlantic waters and is claimed, by some 320 days of annual sunshine. That's a pretty attractive proposition for a holiday destination especially when coupled with a reputation for being an international playground for sun worshippers and sporty types alike. Getting around is easy, the roads are good and it is almost impossible to get lost since practically all the coastal towns and villages lead off the main arterial route stretching from Cape Vincent in the West to Villa Real in the East. The Portuguese are a warm and hospitable people with a cuisine which owes much to its seafaring legacy. The sardines are legendary and the port superb. Combine this with picturesque villages, glorious beaches and a low cost of living and you are pretty well set for very, very good holiday. Travel Details Some 15 trains and at least 8 express buses run daily between Faro and Tavira (30 to 50 minutes).
