Prepare for a quiet trip DE 2h15, rich in landscapes, history and authentic moments. We start NO heart OF Tavira, where DE old streets and traditional architecture tell, in silence, stories of past centuries. We follow the trail of the salt POR open, sparkling landscapes, where the white of the salines blends with the gentle tones of the sky and, POR times, with the rose of the flamingos. Then, we dive NO simple and genuine rhythm OF an old Villa DE fishermen, where time slows down and the sea dictates the compass of the days. Because Tavira is also a living nature, we take a quiet break in a zone DE bird observation, where peace reigns, only interrupted by the beating OF wings or by the call of a distant serpent. We end in the serenita DE Santa Luzia, a charming Villa by the water where the sea, the people and the dust live in harmony. This is a light, rush-free experience, perfect for those who want to discover the most beautiful, sensitive and genuine side of the Algarve.

The highest point in the Algarve, Monchique captivates with its green surroundings, the simplicity of its people and the quality of its gastronomy. Its strategic location thanks to its mountains made Monchique an important point for the Romans as well as the Arabs. In the 15th century, King João II was so impressed by the therapeutic properties of Monchique’s thermal waters that he ordered the construction of a thermal facility which, at the time, was a point of attraction for the locals and has remained a distinctive feature of the region to this day. Monchique thus proves to be the ideal place for those looking for a different Algarve, away from the hustle and bustle of the beaches.
