The Tavira municipality
The whole Tavira municipality, in one place.
Often called the Algarve’s prettiest town, Tavira spreads along the Gilão river towards the island beaches of the Ria Formosa, with Cabanas and the octopus port of Santa Luzia along the shore. This is everything happening across the concelho: the towns, the beaches, the events and the businesses, brought together and kept current by the community.
