ABOUT THE AREA
Olhão stands as a vibrant city and municipality nestled in the picturesque Algarve region of southern Portugal, situated just a brief journey from Faro.
Olhão is a lively fishing port and its waterfront is a hub of activity. Notably dubbed the "cubist city," Olhão's architectural charm is enriched by the prevalent Moroccan flat-roofed style.
Its strategic location makes it an ideal starting point for those wanting to discover the sandy islands of Ria Formosa, such as Culatra and Armona. The Ria Formosa Nature Park (Parque Natural da Ria Formosa) is an exceptional coastal lagoon and a protected area serving as a paradise for birdwatchers. This lagoon also has one of the largest populations of seahorses in the world.
