Part 4/8:
A prime tourist destination, Albufeira was the birthplace of Algarve tourism back in the 70s. While it carries with it a party atmosphere, it also offers beautiful views and interesting architecture.
Lagoa and Silves
Traveling inland, Lagoa provides a quieter scene with local charm. Silves, the historical capital of the Algarve, boasts picturesque hilltops and impressive castle ruins. It’s perfect for those looking for a bit of heritage alongside modern living.
Tavira
Further east lies Tavira, a delightful town that has retained much of its authentic charm. Known for its excellent seafood and stunning views, it provides a more relaxed pace of life while still being accessible to beaches via ferry.
