Ria Formosa Natural Park
Discover one of Portugal’s natural wonders by bike, boat, kayak or on foot and find barrier islands and snaking waterways that provide a haven for flora and fauna.

Olhao Municipal Market
Towering over the waterfront, this market is a symbol of Olhão's industriousness and agricultural traditions, which are depicted on tile paintings inside the buildings.

Ilha da Culatra Beach
Located on a small island that separates Rio Formosa Natural Park from the sea, this undeveloped beach offers calm, clean waters and few crowds.

Olhao Harbour
While staying in Olhão you’ll most likely want to visit the nearby islands of Ria Formosa Natural Park, which is accessible by ferry from this harbor.

Faro Town Hall
Faro Town Hall is just one of the places to see in Sé e São Pedro, so why not enjoy the other things to explore during your travels? Amble around this relaxing area's marina and enjoy its lively bars.

Faro Cathedral
The Cathedral of Faro, also known as Sé or the Church of Santa Maria, is one of the most important historic buildings in Faro. It’s located in the historic city centre, in Largo da Sé. The architecture consists of a mixture of different styles: gothic (tower porch, main entrance, and some chapels), mannerist and baroque.
