Faro Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)

Praia De Faro, A Great Welcome to Portugal

The Praia de Faro is located near Faro Airport and can be accessed from once you leave the airport terminal, you just need to walk for around 5/10 minutes to the entrance. The landscape itself is big and has a lot to offer, the pathways offer a good variety in terms of offering you routes down a forestry terrain or ones more so that are open and allow you to see out across the landscape and towards the ocean. The trees in the area are also very stunning and unique making me personally really excited to get out and explore more of Portugal’s diverse landscape and culture. Would definitely recommend taking half a day out to go see the nature in Praia De Faro as well as visit some of the smaller settlements nearby before heading into Faro or further across the coast to Albufeira. The final bonus is you get to see a good variety of animals too and get an idea of the local agriculture for example the orange trees. #portugal #faro #nature

Trip to Faro, Portugal 🇵🇹

It was a trip to Faro, Portugal 🇵🇹 I have been to many places in Portugal but this is my first time to Faro. On the first day, we visited Faro's historic center, starting with Faro Cathedral. The building and surrounding was very beautiful and worth to visit. Sé Catedral de Faro 📍Largo da Sé, 8000-138 Faro, Portugal. We also explored the very famous Arco da Vila (Town Arch) which once served as the entrance to the city. We also stroll along the Ria Formosa, a coastal lagoon that has shaped Faro's history. Town Arch 📍R. do Municipio, 8000-168 Faro, Portugal, 📍 Av. da República, 8000-078 Faro, Portugal. We also discovered the history of Faro at the Municipal Museum of Faro and took a trip to the Faro Archaeological Museum (Museu Arqueológico de Faro) to learn about the region's ancient civilizations.

Faro Archaeological Museum 📍Largo Dom Afonso III, 8000-167 Faro, Portugal, Just to highlight, we had one of our meal at the most Faro's traditional restaurants, Restaurante Adega Nova. The food and service were both very good and I would really recommend you guys to try. The price is considered reasonable 🙌🙌🙌 Restaurante Adega Nova 📍R. do Alportel 7, 8000-281 Faro, Portugal. We also visited Ilha Deserta (Deserted Island)🏝️ by ferry from Faro. We got to enjoy the pristine beaches and stunning views of the Atlantic Ocean. We also took a boat tour of the Ria Formosa Natural Park, departed from Faro's marina. We watched the sunset 🌅 from Faro's waterfront promenade, overlooking the Ria Formosa. The view was beautiful and definitely worth to visit. We also headed to Praia de Faro, the main beach in Faro, and spent the morning soaking up the sun and swimming in the clear waters. We explored the rugged coastline of the Algarve region by taking a guided tour along the scenic EN125 coastal road. We also stopped at viewpoints like Ponta da Piedade near Lagos for breathtaking vistas 😍😍😍 We also explored picturesque villages like São Brás de Alportel and discovered hidden gems nestled among the rolling countryside. We visited the Algarve's highest point, Foia, near the town of Monchique, for panoramic views of the region. Fortunately, it was a clear day, and we were able to see all the way to the coastline. We then returned to Faro and unwind with a leisurely stroll through the Jardim Manuel Bivar, a lovely park in the city center overlooking the marina. On the last day, we headed to back Lisbon and ended our trip. #vacation #shortgetaway #Beach

The Algarve has proved to be a beautiful surprise on this trip. Beautiful beaches with a green hue contrasting with the yellowish color of the stones. The Algarve, in the extreme south of Portugal, is known for its Mediterranean beaches and golf resorts. #awesomepic #unforgettableexperiences
