The Algarve / East Algarve region
The Algarve's 200 kilometre stretch of southern shoreline is one of Europe's most popular holiday destinations. The region has attracted visitors since the time of the Phoenicians, but today it caters for millions of tourists a year with its stunning coastline, excellent golf courses and pleasant year round climate.
Bordered on two sides by the Atlantic, the Algarve is divided from the rest of Portugal by a series of low lying mountains. In the east, the Guardiana River forms a scenic border with neighbouring Spain.
The region's capital, Faro, is built around a charming harbour at the edge of a wide lagoon. Its main attractions include a maritime museum and a 13th century cathedral.
The Eastern Algarve is very different compared to the rugged beauty found west of Faro. It’s tidal marshlands have a tranquil beauty and the small resorts along the coast have retained much of their character, looking today as they must have looked long ago. Here, tourism blends in perfectly with local activities creating a relaxed way of life. There is a tinge of excitement and even romance about those ferry or tiny boat trips to the islands, where visitors are rewarded with superb, less crowded bathing beaches and warm waters.
Cabanas de Tavira area
Cabanas is a small and pretty fishing village and is reached within a few minutes walk. The village remains largely unspoilt and has a friendly, family atmosphere. There is excellent choice of shops, restaurants, bars and typical Portuguese cafes catering for all tastes - most of which run along the sea front and capture the day time sunshine. However, not to be missed are some of the small back street Tascas which serve food and drinks at the very reasonable prices! Cabanas is not a desination for those seeking activity and night life - the atmosphere is very realxing and offers its visitors a real feel of the unspoilt Eastern Algarve.
BEACH The Algarve is famous for its wonderful sandy beaches and the beach of Cabanas is no exception.The Beach Island and is reached by a small and inexpensive water taxi that runs regularly from the main street. A good range of facilities is offered including snack bars, sun beds for hire and a wonderful holiday atmosphere amongst golden sands and the rolling Atlantic Ocean.
TAVIRA When staying in Cabanas a visit to the beautiful Town of Tavira is essential. Here you will find many fine 18th Century buildings, 37 Churches(!) and a large range of restaurants and shops, mixing both the old and the new elements of the Algarve. The town is steeped in history with known roots reaching as far back as 2000 B.C. A Roman bridge links the two parts of the town across the River Gilão, its sides decorated with traditional old bars and restaurants where can relax and enjoy a peaceful drink or meal, to suit all tastes. You can also visit the old castle, several monuments and the typical fisherman’s harbour which links to the waters of the Ria Formosa Natural Park. Tavira Island and its golden beaches are reached by small boat from the main harbour where you can sunbathe and swim in the pleasant Atlantic Waters. Drive time to Tavira is 10 minutes.
GOLF This is perfect accommodation for golfers wishing to sample the excellent courses situated in the Eastern Algarve. Within a 20km radius there are 7 courses to choose from. Benamor and the 2 Quintas (Ria and Cima) are the most popular and can be reached within several minutes.
