Tavira region holiday apartment. Luxury apartment with pool in Tavira

Excursions and Destinations Around Tavira: We recommend hiring a car because there are so many wonderful places to visit in the eastern Algarve and across the border in Spain. In addition to the golfing opportunities described below, you can go cycling or mountain biking, fishing, water skiing, wind surfing, boating, swimming in both the sea and the calmer lagoon waters. For nature lovers, the Algarve is a treasure trove: bird watching is excellent at all times of year, but particularly fruitful in the Spring and the Autumn when the migratory species are on the move between Europe and Africa. Wild flower and garden enthusiasts will appreciate the wonderful plants to be seen here. For the history minded, excursions to the castles at Castro Marim and Alcountim will also give you a look at life in the Algarve hills away from the seaside resorts. The picturesque border town of Vila Real Sto. Antionio contains a wonderful town centre built to the plans of the Marques de Pombal following the famous earthquake in 1755.

More Things to Do: Visit the Camara Obscura in Tavira, and the astronomical observatory north of Tavira for a different sight of the Algarve´s attractions. Or tour the Mine Park which explores the mining history of the area through archaeological and historical displays ranging from Roman times to the 20th century. Or take the local train to Faro, the provincial capital, and wander around tis fascinating old quarter, the pedestrian precincts and the shopping centres. You can also take the local train or drive to the famous fish market at Olhão. Or if you are here at the right time, go to the Medieval Days festival at the castle in Castro Marim, or attend the outdoor film festival in Tavira. The guest book in our apartment has information on many attractions to help you make plans and bookings. Our local agents, Ingeborg and Regina, can also assist, if needed.

For Families and Children: There are many activities for families and children, beyond of course, the pool and the beaches. A boat ride on the Guadiana River or on the Ria Formosa lagoon can be fascinating, or just a boat ride to the beaches on the offshore islands is a treat. Most restaurants are very family friendly. The Ria Formosa Nature Reserve has a lovely educational walking trail explaining the ecosystem of the Reserve. There is also a center for the preservation of the Portuguese water dog at the Reserve. For larger family groups, we can offer not only our own apartment, but also two others owned by cousins of ours. One shares the ground floor with us. The other is in an adjacent building. In total, our three apartments can sleep 14 people comfortably (no folding or sofa beds). Please see property numbers 58660 and 58754 for details about these accommodations. Arrangements for all 3 apartments can be made with one reservation through our agents. See contact section below.

Golf: We are ideally located for golfers - 8 minutes from the top rated Quinta da Ria/Quinta da Cima courses, and 3 minutes from the more relaxing Benamor course. Castro Marim Golf is just 15 minutes away and the famous courses at Vilamoura, Quinta do Lago and Vale do Lobo are easily reached in 30 to 45 minutes via the A 22 motorway. Or cross over to Spain and play the new Esuri course about 20 minutes away via the A22 motorway. The apartment´s controlled access garage also means you can relax and leave the clubs safely in the boot of the car at the end of your golfing day. For groups of golfers, we can also offer accommodations not only in our own apartment but also in two other apartments owned by cousins of ours in the same urbanization. In total, our three apartments can sleep 14 people comfortably (no folding or sofa beds). One apartment shares the ground floor with us, and the other is in an adjacent building. Refer to property numbers 58660 and 58754 for more details on these accommodations. Arrangements for all 3 apartments can be made with one reservation through our agents. See contact section below.
