Living in Tavira

Your new home in Tavira is the start of an exciting journey. Protected by a natural lagoon, it offers lovely weather, friendly locals, nature, birdlife, beaches, and spectacular views over the Ria Formosa. Those with a car, will have access to some of the best golfing facilities in the Algarve, good restaurants, in the nearby fishing villages and a Saturday morning local weekly market in Olhão. Close enough to the Spanish border, it offers the chance for a Portuguese shopping experience in Villa San Real, cross the Guadiana River by ferry into Ayamonte and enjoy a Spanish experience. Visit the new Ayamonte shopping centre.

So, however much time you spend here, enjoy the suprises round every corner, open your eyes and ears. Have you heard the flute? this is the knife sharpener doing his rounds. He has a bike and he pedals to drive the sharpener. The quaint bookshop where you can have a cup of tea, browse the books and have a chat with Liz. The tea for two cafe which has the largest selection of tea from all over the world and in our opinion the best chicken in Tavira. The delights of the library, access to english newspapers, chicken pies to die for and free internet access. The delights of Tavira.
