Best period to travel to Faro
On the southern tip of Portugal, Faro is a must-see destination full of beautiful natural landscapes. With constant sunshine and almost no rain, spring and summer are the best times to visit Faro. With highs of 20℃, the weather in spring is hot, great for exploring the city and its Roman buildings. With a typically Mediterranean climate, summers are hot and dry, accompanied by a mild breeze, the perfect time to visit the Algarve’s sandy beaches and try out water sports!
What Faro has to offer?
Capital of the Algarve
Surrounded by the city walls, make your way around the maze of little streets filled with the city’s unique charm. In the shade of the white and blue buildings (and away from- although not too far from- the lively beaches), the tranquil scenery of the city centre will certainly leave you feeling calm. In this little corner of paradise, the whitewashed walls soften the heat and the palm trees shade the terraces. The aguardiente will tantalise your tastebuds and is perfect to have before heading back into town.
Golf and Leisure in the Algarve
With around twenty courses in the city, the Algarve is a golfer’s paradise! In the 15th century, the Algarve, meaning ‘west’ in Arabic, paved the way for the Great Discoveries. Nowadays, it’s a great place for a spot of relaxing!
Day Trips
Between Christianity and Islam, sea and land, there are so many day trips available from Faro. With its fig orchards and orange groves, the inland is a great place to start. And don’t forget the beautiful cliffs along the coastline!
Ria Formosa, beaches and national park
At the foot of Faro lies the Ria Formosa, a long stretch of beach filled with sand lagoons, salt marshes, and inlets. It’s also home to many different species of birds- making it an ideal spot for a bit of birdwatching!
