Hotels in Faro
Faro meets the sea in a stretch of beaches and the Ria Formosa, where flamingos can be seen taking to the air. On the level land before the coast are the buildings and gardens of Faro, green vegetable plots that thrive on the fertile land and water wheels that were once used to draw water from the ground - another reminder of the city's Moorish heritage.
