Some of the best places for history lovers and for those who are looking for a calming experience
Alvor for relaxing holidays
This is a great destination for families and children as it is a family-focused town. The beaches are safe with clean and calm waters. Are you passionate about history? Alvor’s history dates back to the 4th century BC. The port was very prosperous during the Roman occupation and became Al-bur. The earthquake in 1755 obliterated the place and did the greatest damage to the village and its castle, which is now a children’s play park. But you can still visit the 16th-century parish church, Igreja do Divino Salvador. Need a bit of action? Practice some watersports, horse riding in Mexilhoeira Grande or canoeing on Ria Alvor. But if you are looking for relaxation and sun, take a short pleasant walk to Alvor Beach, a vast expanse of golden sand with a pristine appearance as there is very little tourist development on the beachfront. What are you waiting for? Book a holiday rental with a sea view! Or you can have a look at our calming villas in Vilamoura too!
