Villa Romana de Milreu

In Estói, less than 10 kilometres from Faro, the Roman ruins of Milreu are a place of celebration of cultures. With a remarkable archaeological collection, which includes a fascinating set of mosaic panels, visiting this place is like travelling back in time.

Algarve Literary Route

The invitation is irrefusable “to walk inspired by landscape and literature”. Sílvia Quinteiro and Rita Baleiro, from the Hotel and Tourism Management School of the University of the Algarve, designed and coordinated the conception of this route with many stories waiting to be revealed.

Salinas do Grelha

Natural marine nurseries, the salt pans are the cradle of an age-old activity. In Bela Mandil, Olhão, the gaze lingers on the small mountains of white crystals of the Salinas do Grelha. An experience to relax and explore moments of well-being.
