Why Tavira?

Far from the crowds of Albufeira, Tavira appeals to those seeking the Algarve of 30 years ago. A slower market, softer prices, limited but characterful supply: renovated fishermen's houses, country villas, quintas.

Areas

  • Historic centre — old houses, patios, terraces.
  • Santo Estêvão — countryside, villas.
  • Cabanas, Santa Luzia — coastal villages.
  • Tavira island — right on the sand, seasonal.
