Neighborhood info

To walk: there are an elevated walkway (7 Km) that cross the sand dunes of the Ria de Alvor nature reserve as well as natural trails to explore. Both provide pleasant walks with scenic views over the estuary, which is a haven for bird life. To eat: there is a wide selection of restaurants in Alvor, which cover all styles of cuisine: Portuguese, English, Indian, Chinese, Italian and Spanish. Eating out is cheaper than back at your home and the evening meal is an important part of the Portuguese day, therefore meals tend not to be rushed. Tipping is not compulsory but it is often expected and a way to thank the staff. To visit: From Alvor it is very easy to visit the towns of Portimão and Praia da Rocha, as these two destinations are connected by the inexpensive local bus network. Portimão is a large residential city that has excellent shopping, a historic center and a pleasant harbour. Praia da Rocha is a busy and hectic resort town located on a beautiful coastline. It is the place to head to for a big party night out, as the town is crammed full with themed bars and late night venue.
