About the destination

Portimão is the largest town in the western Algarve. It has been an important port since ancient times because of its location at the mouth of the river Arade. Today it is a busy provincial town and a commercial fishing port. During the summer months the quay on the town side of the river is lined with boats offering game-fishing trips and coastal and river cruises. Praca da Republica is an impressive square in the centre of Portimao. There are a number of water fountains located in and around the square and plenty of benches to sit on and watch the world go by. Along one side of the square is the imposing Church of the Colegio. The Igreja de Nossa Senhora da Conceição dominates the city center skyline. This historic building was rebuilt after the 1755 earthquake retaining an excellent Manueline style door from the original 14th century building. The interior is impressive with walls covered in glazed tiles from the 17th century. Praia da Rocha, the main beach in Portimão, is very beautiful and exotic and has an excellent beach bar. A modern and new marina is also one of the attractions on the Praia da Rocha path, full of new bars and restaurants from where to watch the rest of the world go by Summertime is clearly the busiest time of the year, reaching a climax with a popular annual event in Portimão: the sardine festival in august. The mild climate of the Algarve, and many sunny winter days attract a multinational crowd in all seasons, exploring the regional markets, visiting historical sites, strolling along the river boulevard or just sipping a drink in a terrace bar.
