Book flights to Faro

Centred around a picturesque old town (Cidade Velha) and colourful marina, the city of Faro is an enchanting place to visit. So much more than a gateway to the beach resorts of the Algarve, Faro has a unique history with medieval walls and cathedrals influenced by Roman and Moorish rule. From sampling fresh seafood to strolling down winding cobblestone streets, the city is home to a distinctly Portuguese culture as well as museums, churches and restaurants serving up local cuisine.

British Airways flies direct to Faro Airport (FAO), only a short drive (4km) from the city centre. When you’re done exploring everything the city has to offer, there are excellent local beaches, like Praia de Faro, and nearby beach resorts right on Faro’s doorstep. Explore the impressive Parque Natural da Ria Formosa with its sprawling lagoons on the Algarve coastline. Or take a short boat ride to the Ilha Deserta, a deserted island that makes for a unique day trip. Book your holiday to the Algarve now.
