Alvor

The dune system of Praia de Alvor is just out of the village with a long stretch of fine golden sand aided by a wide wooden walkway allowing nature lovers to explore the Alvor estuary and natural marshes, home of many wetland birds where you may also find locals in shallow waters in search for shellfish. 

This raised footpath is available to stroll on dry land and assist the spectacular sunsets to the beach restaurants which serve fresh fish and fine red wine. 

Alvor sits at the mouth of the river that has the same name, located between two larger towns Portimão and Lagos, with a small port, changed very little over the years, despite the new marina. 

This village is a maze of narrow streets made up of bright white houses backed up on a gentle hill. The Igreja Matriz, the Igreja do Divino and the Megaliticas of Alcalar are sites of interest along with the charming museum, next to the small church of Santa Casa de Misericódia, revealing the fishing activities of the locals. 

Small grocer and handicraft shops abound in Alvor. Some restaurants and bars may be closed in the winter, but there are great Portuguese International food and varied fresh seafood dishes with friendly service to offer. After dark, Alvor has a cultured and cosmopolitan program. Bars are clustered together and lead directly to the local harbor, ranging from traditional Portuguese to themed bars.
