For a perfect visit of this beautiful corner of Portugal, the ideal is to settle your suitcases in Faro : capital of the Algarve, is one of the most charming seaside resorts of the country. Its marina, its beautiful squares, its medieval heart, its beaches and its lagoons are the starting point of many excursions in the province, for holidays under the sign of discovery and rest.

A typical Portuguese village, Faro is undeniably welcoming, just like the towns that make up the district of the same name.

If the district of Faro is visited during the day, it is also visited at night : the large student population present in this region gives it a certain dynamism, and if you like the festival, know that the nights of Albufeira and Faro can sometimes be rather lively! In addition to the undeniable festive side of these villages, you will also appreciate their numerous cultural activities. The majestic churches of this Portuguese region will seduce history lovers and the curious : Faro Cathedral, small and low, is a clever mix of Baroque and Renaissance style. Push his door to discover the magnificent organ of the XVIIIth century which alone is worth the detour. The most popular church in Faro district remains the "Igreja do Carmo" : strange and fascinating, this baroque church has a luxurious interior decoration, decorated with gold leaves... But its popularity comes from its "Capela dos Ossos", understand its "bone chapel", made up of skeletons and skulls of monks. If this evocation may seem surprising, we guarantee you that the visit is worth it. The medieval old town of Lagos and the Nossa Senhora de Conceiçao church are also some of the places to visit during your stay, as are the Azulejos Gardens of the Estoi Palace located 10 kilometres from the centre of Faro. With a superb pink façade, the Palais d'Estoi has sumptuous gardens, which attract many visitors every year.

In addition to its lush parks, cobbled streets and historic cities, the district of Faro is the ideal place for idleness. The beach "Praia de Barrinha", on the Ancao peninsula, is a famous surf spot in the area ; it is also lined with many restaurants perfect for discovering local dishes. Ilha Deserta" is a must see : as its name suggests, it is a deserted sandy island, perfect for long afternoons of relaxation in a dream setting. Very little visited even in summer, it nevertheless offers magnificent landscapes to its visitors, and has superb immaculate beaches. Our advice : think about taking a picnic, there is only one restaurant on the island. Faro's lagoon is also home to Armona Island, which is also worth a visit : 9 kilometres long, this island of pretty colourful houses is the perfect place for a holiday away from the crowd, in a postcard setting.
