What to expect

The Ria Formosa Natural Park is an extraordinary area of natural beauty stretching over 60km of coastline and 18,400 hectares. It's one of the Algarve's finest natural attractions and you'll get to know its highlights on this tour from Faro. Your first stop, the village of Castro Marim, sits prettily on top of a hill. It's home to the historic Castelo Velho, or Old Castle.

Next, we head to Cacela Velha a village offering panoramic views over the Ria Formosa landscapes. From there, we continue on to Tavira. Explore the bustling fish market where you'll see the fresh catch of the day, before continuing to the famous salt pans within the natural reserve. Find out what makes Flor de Sal from Tavira delicacy compared to regular sea salt.

Round off the day at Fuzeta, a traditional fishing village where there's free time for an optional lunch. Then you'll set off on a scenic boat tour to enjoy the views of wild islands and tranquil beaches within the protected nature reserve. There's time for a swim before you return to base.
