"Stop here and think of the fate that will befall you.

Visit Tavira and the old castle ruins, see the Santa Maria do Castelo Church and the famous 4th century Roman bridge, before returning to your hotel. Continue to the Old Town and the 13th century Cathedral. Here you will see the tidal mill, salt pans and fisherman activities.

Drive to Olhao, a city built under Arabic rule influences and enjoy a visit to the waterfront markets and take a boat cruise through the Ria Formosa.

There is free time for lunch and visits before a drive to Santa Luzia in the afternoon where you will marvel at this picturesque and unspoiled village, known for its fishing activities ."
