Faro Old Town
Why go to Faro Old Town
Faro Old Town in Portugal has built its reputation on quiet beach walks away from the main strip and watersports rented by the hour right off the sand — the kind of place that rewards slowing down rather than rushing between sights. A quieter, historic counterpoint to the Algarve's resort strip.
Flights land at FAO airport, and the pace on the ground is generally easygoing — expect the day to be built around the beach, with everything else fitted in around it. Faro Old Town is well suited to both a short week away and a longer, slower two-week stay.
