Finding Charming Algarve

Wherever the senses come, the mountains and the sea are always present in the Algarve. However, aside from the busy tourist beaches, it is possible to discover another Algarve, its history, traditions and gastronomy.

The invitation to visit the eastern coast of the Algarve begins in the pleasant city of Tavira which is a historic town with a beautiful river landscape, ruins of a castle and a growing cultural life.

Touring villages and picturesque Algarve villages during the day (such as Cancela Velha or Castro Marim) will allow you to visit an authentic Algarve, which presents vestiges of the past, castles, churches and beaches to lose sight of, even without the mass presence of tourists.

An important part of the visit is to know the traditional gastronomy of the Algarve, which having the sea as the main source of ingredients, will complete the visit with the best flavours of the Algarve coast.
