THE HEART OF TAVIRA, 15KM

The famous and beautiful town of Tavira is located in the heart of the Eastern Algarve only 30kms from Faro Airport and 30 kms form the Spanish border. From this villa, approximately 15kms. As one of the region's oldest and most attractive town, you cannot fail to be enthralled by its charm, character and tranquility. Once known as the capital of the Algarve, you'll see an abundance of history - a Roman bridge links the 2 parts of the town across the River Gilao, its sides decorated with traditional old bars and restaurants. As well as viewing the many fine C18th building and churches (27 in total!), you can visit the old castle, several monuments and the typical fisherman's harbour leading to the River Formosa Natural Park. There is a wonderful daily market selling fresh home grown produce, and the local beach of Tavira accessible by small ferry boat and boast excellent facilities and a wonderful holiday atmosphere.
