Location: Ferragudo in Portugal
Car: not necessary
Along the coastline between Portimao and Carvoeiro, the village of Ferragudo remains unspoilt, by-passed by the development of commercial tourism. This picturesque village is the most attractive fishing village in the Algarve. Our holiday apartment is to be found on the south side of the village, just behind the church, and enjoys views over the marina towards the lively town of Portimao. Its beach is possibly one of the more notable in the Algarve.
The heart of the village is a short 5 minute stroll through narrow cobbled streets meandering down to the square and waterfront which hosts a wealth of restaurants and cafes.
For those looking for an active holiday, golf courses, beach watersports, horse riding, hiking trails and a tennis centre are a short drive away.
The nearest beach is less than 5 minutes walk. Cliff top walks and secluded coves are only a short stroll away.
Ferragudo village has a bank, post office & internet café. During summer the water taxi goes to Portimao.
