Tour Description
Vilamoura is a glamorous beach resort built from scratch with one thing in mind: holidays!
Life in Vilamoura spins around the upscale marina, lined with elegant yachts, and, of course, the beaches, where you’ll be spoilt with more leisure and relaxation facilities you could ask for!
Vilamoura nightlife
Nearby there are cultural, historic, and natural attractions to experience.
Filled with chic bars, shops, and restaurants for all tastes, the Vilamoura Marina is the core of the resort’s upbeat social life.
Regarding the beaches, in either direction you turn, there are huge stretches of golden sand with warm waters to choose from, offering plenty of activities, in and out of the water.
All with easy access, meaning a good option for those with limited mobility, the beaches have the usual bars with sunset parties, cafes for meals and refreshments, and sun-lounges and parasols for rent.
As expected, during summer the beaches within walking distance get very busy. But you just have to walk a bit more to find a comfortable spot!
Loulé market
You won’t be disappointed to lay your towel in Quarteira, Vale do Lobo, Falesia, or another lively beach nearby, all awarded with a blue flag.
In the vicinities, you have the Roman ruins of a fishing village, with murals and a bathing complex.
To the north, there’s a protected area of wetlands, ideal for nature activities and birdwatching.
Vilamoura is a well-equipped resort with all sorts of sports activities, from famed golf courses to outdoor tennis courts.
Vilamoura environmental park
A half-an-hour drive takes you to Faro, the capital of Algarve, where you’ll find a small but pretty old town, with storks’ nests on the spiked roofs. From the tower of the cathedral, you get a fantastic view of the city and the Ria Formosa.
About the same time gets you to Loulé, in the mountains, for a completely different perspective of the Algarve. Visit the 13th-century castle and the lively farmers market.
Whatever the time of the year you chose to visit Vilamoura, you’ll find a pleasant and interesting experience, with world-class beaches, and plenty of fun!
