Olhão – for a quieter Algarve holiday

A magical Portuguese town

Choose holiday rentals in Olhão for a fabulous stay in a town that is located to the east of Faro in the Algarve. The fishing town enjoys good transport connections from the main Faro airport. Upon your arrival, truly magical experiences await. You will not find fresher, tastier fish anywhere in the world. Step down to the local market near the coast to choose from a huge range of freshly caught seafood offerings. At the same time, we suggest taking the time to soak in the atmosphere of this thriving town. At the busy harbour, you can see the fishing boats waiting to head back out to see or drop off their latest haul. Stroll through the tiny, daintily lit streets at night and choose from one of the many superb restaurants which are waiting to welcome you with mouth-watering fayre.

Olhão for lovers of the outdoors

Choosing affordable holiday lettings in Olhão allows you the opportunity to enjoy the great outdoors with plenty of fantastic outdoor spaces to explore. One particularly wonderful option is a boat trip to the barrier islands off the coast. Lined with soft, cream-coloured sand and lapped by gentle waves and crystal-clear waters, this is the perfect place to bring friends and family. Pack a picnic lunch and a good bottle of wine for your excursions. You will find fantastical dunes to marvel at. Some of them are completely devoid of other people and offer the chance for a private space to relax.

Olhão for watersports lovers

There are plenty of exciting water sports opportunities for you to enjoy when you choose to book a villa in Faro. This includes popular activities such as diving and snorkelling. Look out for the local seahorses and make sure to check out the clam and oyster beds. Special diving trips are available where you can see incredible tuna that live off the coast. This is a true once-in-a-lifetime experience. You can also see the ocean wildlife from above the water if you prefer to stay dry. You can do this by booking a magical dolphin-spotting trip.

Top 5 travel tips in Olhão

Book a holiday letting in Olhão to explore the region's culture and cuisine

id="tip-1"1. See the replica of the Caravela Bom Sucesso

After Portugal gained independence from French rule, 17 fishermen sailed to Brazil from Olhão without any navigational equipment. They did so to advise the royal family that they could leave exile. This incredible journey took place in 1808. You can visit a replica of the boat that they used to make this incredible journey during your time here in Olhão. The replica is moored in the town's harbour in front of the Municipal Market.

id="tip-2"2. Enjoy the wonderful local cuisine

Olhão is famed for its superb offering of local food that is waiting for you to discover. While the harbourfront restaurants are outstanding, we also recommend spending some time exploring the pretty streets in town to find some wonderful eateries. A few suggestions of restaurants to check out around the area include Vai e Volta, Delícia de Olhão, Pizza Na Pedra and Chaminé.

id="tip-3"3. Taste the local oysters

There is nothing quite like the luxurious experience that comes along with tasting an oyster that was plucked from the sea just hours before you eat it. Olhão is famed for its oyster beds that will be right on your doorstep. Given this fact, you can enjoy the freshest version of these seafood delights whenever the mood strikes. We recommend heading to Olhão's local Mercado to sample the freshest oysters and equally fresh mussels, fish, crabs and clams.

id="tip-4"4. Visit the Igreja de Nossa Senhora do Rosário

The Igreja de Nossa Senhora do Rosário is an extraordinary church located in Olhão that was constructed with funds that were raised by the local fishermen's mutual society. It features an astonishing five altars that are adorned with gilded woodwork. This structure was built at the end of the 17th century though it was completed during the early 18th.

id="tip-5"5. Step back in time at the Museu Municipal de Olhão

Another one of the most unique tourist experiences in Olhão is a visit to the Museu Municipal de Olhão. It is a palatial museum building that houses archaeological dig findings such as ancient coins. It is also home to some more recent historical treasures from the town. The museum is located in a beautiful 18th-century building and is a must for history lovers. Those who love discovering the fascinating history of this corner of Portugal might also consider booking holiday lettings in Tavira. It is located just 25 minutes to the northeast and is renowned for its historic centre with popular attractions that include Tavira Castle, a Roman-era bridge and the Igreja da Misericórdia. This is also a popular spot for nature lovers as it is close to Ria Formosa Natural Park.
