An intriguing mix of old and new, history and vision, the capital of the Algarve is a rich destination for travellers looking for a holiday packed with variety. From secluded beaches and deserted islands to bustling old squares and churches made of bones, Faro has plenty to offer eve the most discerning traveller – with plenty of surprises thrown in.
For culture, the Capela de Ossos (chapel of bones), constructed from the bones of monks is an unusual, haunting attraction. Faro Archaeological Museum houses impressive permanent exhibits, with a rich programme of visiting collections. Also visit the beautiful baroque Carmo Church and the Estadio Algarve for sporting events or a tour. If adventure is your thing, diving off the coast of Faro is a popular activity for locals and tourists alike, with a rich marine locality including shipwrecks, artificial and natural reefs, with underwater archaeological tours widely available.
One of the highlights of any visit to Faro is the outdoor landscape. Just outside the city you can visit The Desert Island, one of the islands that protects the Ria Formosa from the effects of the ravaging ocean. Recognised as one of the greatest natural treasures of the Algarve region, its wilds boast 11 km of white sand. Another impressive and secluded beach is the Cape of St Mary, reachable via a short ferry ride. Home to sweeping dues, walking trails, azure sea and an amazing number of shells, this is a beautiful spot that cannot be ignored.
If you’d like to travel further afield, Faro is a great base for exploring other countries and territories. Spain is very close to Faro, with Seville only a two-hour drive by car from its old, orange-lined squares, historic buildings, flamenco and warm welcome. Another great excursion is a day trip o overnight trip to Gibraltar, where you will see the impressive Rock of Gibraltar with its cheeky barbary apes, as well as get the chance to pick up some extra cheap tax-free shopping.
