Welcome

To the Algarve, Faro and Ria Formosa

The Ria Formosa is a fantastic lagoon system in the form of a triangle, consisting of marshlands and an impressive number of channels that resemble a maze dependent on the tides and protected from the Atlantic Ocean by a dune cord consisting of 2 peninsulas (Cacela and Ancão) and 5 barrier islands (Deserta, Culatra, Armona, Tavira, and Cabanas). Ria Formosa is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful places in the Algarve, and the Algarve is, par excellence, the best beach destination in Portugal, and Ria Formosa its pearl. Faro and its Ria is a place that must be visited at least once in a lifetime.

Faro and its Ria are places that should be visited at least once in a lifetime.
