Faro Airport is the gateway to the Algarve in Portugal, that more than 200km long stretch of soft, golden beaches, shimmering blue seas and almost endless sunshine.
The Algarve’s popularity with British, Irish, Dutch and German tourists ensures great competition among airlines. There is no shortage of cheap flights to Faro.
Many tourists will see the city, administrative centre of the Algarve, only fleetingly as they make to resorts along the coast, but this small city has plenty of attractions. The Ria Formosa is a large lagoon system protected from the sea by 60km of beaches and sand dunes. The natural park – pink flamingos are a highlight – is made up of two peninsulas and five barrier islands. As far as Faro is concerned, this region includes the Ancao peninsula and Barreta and Culatra islands. Praia de Faro and Praia da Culatra are two of the most popular beaches. In the summertime, there is a regular boat service to Culatra.
Other sights include Faro Harbour where you can watch the fishermen at work, the cathedral and museums – municipal and maritime. The Arco da Vila (archway) marks the entrance to Faro’s Old Town, an atmospheric quarter with shops and restaurants.
