Tavira

Tavira was a very important place on the map throughout Portuguese history, in fact, once the most important port beyond Lisbon at the time. During the Age of Discoveries. When you've had your fill of azulejos and views of terracotta rooftops, wander back down to the riverfront and find a quiet spot for a drink. Fishing is still a mainstay of the local economy and the fishing boats are moored just beyond the old market
