boat from Faro to Barreta Island and Culatra for their deserted
beaches and warm waters, sheltered within the Ria Formosa Nature Reserve.
Sporty beaches in Faro
Head to Blue Flag Vilamoura Marina on your Faro beach holiday for sailing
trips along the Algarve coast. You'll find the best windsurfing around

diving and bodyboarding. If you're an experienced surfer, head for the

Albufeira's yellow-sand Praia dos Pescadores an easy
choice with the town behind offering a large choice of refreshments. A quieter

cliffs, or Quarteira Beach with its two miles of sand and breakwaters
providing calm water for swimming.

Start your Faro beach holiday on Albufeira's beaches with bars just a
stumbling distance from the hot sand. Go upmarket in Vilamoura
Marina's glamorous bars, popular with famous faces. Enjoy relaxed

to Carvoeiro Beach where the party carries on after the disco.
