It may be a city, but Faro is on the outskirts of a natural park, where birdwatchers and nature lovers will feel right at home. The scenery here is stunning, and as it’s protected, the beauty is here to stay. It’s a migration route for many species of birds, including flamingos and the rare purple swamphen, so take your camera!
The historical old town is split into the Vila-Adentro and Mouraria and is a delightful way to lose track of time while staying in the capital. Wander beneath the three arches and cast your eyes over the intricate architecture, or take a look around the mesmerizing cathedral before stopping for a refreshing drink. Rua Francisco Gomes and Rua Santo Antonio are fantastic for street shopping!
Faro’s famous beaches are located on sandpits that run along the shore, with pretty lagoons great for a swim on one side and large Atlantic waves along the other side! Boogie board in the Atlantic and relax on sunkissed sands by the lagoon. Both sides are flanked by numerous shops, eateries and bars. The Ilha de Faro, Ilha da Armona and Ilha Deserta beaches are quite popular among tourists and locals alike.
