The big draw: Faro airport

Distance: 4 miles

Faro itself is a quaint historic town well worth an afternoon meander, but it is the holiday resorts of the southernmost region of mainland Portugal that attract people to this sun-drenched corner of the world. From the cosmopolitan city of Portim?o to the architecturally attractive town of Tavira there's something for everyone, plus plenty of sun.

the gateway to...

Lagos

Distance: 57 miles

Lagos combines all that's special about the Algarve coastline, from dazzling beaches to quaint promenades, plus enough military history to keep Dad quiet for an hour or two.

Albufeira

Distance: 29 miles

Famous (or infamous) for its nightlife, Albufeira is all about late-night reveling once the sun has set. After a hard day's tanning by the pool or honing your swing on the golf course, grab your dancing shoes and party Portuguese style.

Parque Natural da Ria Formosa

Distance: 7 miles

Stretching along 37 miles of coastline, the wide marshes and salty waters of this sprawling wetlands area make a great habitat for an array of animal and bird life. Grab your binoculars and follow one of the hiking trails through the park.
