The Algarve region
The Eastern Algarve area is an amazing diversity of both modern development and facilities along with discovering the true identity of Portugal, totally unchanged, which you will find only a few kilometres inland. The climate, although changing a little, boasts an enviable amount of sunshine throughout the year which enables holiday makers to fully enjoy all the wonderful scenery, clean beaches, golf courses and marvellous variety of fresh food. There are also many excellent areas for bird watching and walking. You will find many historically interesting Churches, Roman ruins and architectural buildings throughout the area to explore and along with the friendliness of the locals you can be assured of a very memorable holiday.
Tavira / Moncarapacho/Sta Catarina area
Santa Caterina is within a 5 minute drive - here you will find a variety of local shops for your basic needs and a Sunday market once a month. A 15 minute drive will take you to the old Moorish town of Tavira on the banks of the river Gilao which inspite of some development has kept it's unique charm and identity and sense of history. There are many good shops, restaurants and an excellent daily fish and local produce market. From here you can also take a short ferry ride out to Tavira island with it's long sandy beach, sunbeds, bars and restaurants! The Spanish border on the river Guadiana is a 30 minute drive away and has plenty of interesting places to visit and if you fancy driving to Seville the 2 hour trip is well worth the effort.
