Tavira is one of the most architecturally attractive towns in the Algarve and its origin dates back to around 2000 BC. During the occupation of the Algarve by the Moors this town was considered of great importance due to its fishing industry.
There are golf courses at Benamor and Colina verde which lie just outside of Tavira.
Offshore, the island of Tavira offers 11 kilometres (8 miles) of some of the finest beaches in the region, being also part of the Ria Formosa nature reserve and popular among bird-watchers. It is also an ideal place for swimming. There are also bars and restaraunts on the island which is a short but pleasant ferry journey (cost Euro 1.80) from the centre of town or alternatively from the jetty. The jetty is roughly a 15 minute walk from the house. On the walk you are likely to come across many species of bird including Flamingos and Storks.
In Tavira itself their are numerous bars and restaraunts that perpetuate a very much "al fresco" culture. There are also many historical and cultural points of interest including Churches, Art Galleries, a variety of interesting shops, a Camera Obscura and even a castle!
Cost. from £35 per night low season £45 high season. Bookings run from and to when you like. Bottled Gas is serves hot water and for washing, showering etc. this is normal in Portugal . Refills can be obtained from the Galp Gas shop. You can see the Gas shop in the corner of the ‘square’ from the front of the house (50 metres). The guy who does the deliveries will walk over to the house with the new bottle, and take away the empty for you. All I ask is that if you empty a bottle you refill it. Refills cost Euros 23. This will ensure that everyone who arrives at the property finds gas available. (I normally give the guy a Euro1 tip for doing the fetching and carrying.)
