The Faro Island, also known as Faro Beach has the access facilitated through a bridge, and can be made either by foot or by car.
An extensive sandy area welcomes the visitor, with sea on one side and the river on the other.
This is a great beach for nautical sports, such as surf and windsurf, among others. With the offering of accommodation and a campsite, this is not the most peaceful and quiet island of the Algarve, but even so, and for those who do not mind to explore other spots and nooks of this island, it is always possible to find idyllic places here.
Colourful fishermen houses, boats, dunes, river, ocean and restaurants with tasty seafood make the Faro Island a great destination for several tastes.
