  • The town beach, Praia de Faro, is a long stretch of golden sand with the advantage of being both sea-facing and with a more sheltered lagoon side. However being a town beach, it is very close to all amenities and also to the airport so you are likely to see and hear the flights Faro bound overhead.

  • For a quieter retreat, catch a ferry over to Farol to a sandbar beach. Alternatively there is a longer boat journey of over two hours to Ilha Deserta, part of the Parque Natural da Ria Formosa and the most southerly mainland point of Portugal. Here is a glorious stretch of sand, perfect for a picnic as there are not so many amenities. For a proper day trip, make the effort to get to Ilha de Tavira, a 10 mile beach backed by sand dunes.
