The Boliqueime Food Festival returns for its seventh year at Largo da Feira, filling the square with more than 30 street food stalls covering everything from traditional Portuguese dishes to international flavours, plus craft stands and traditional sweets. It runs daily from 19:00 to 2am. Live music runs each night: Friday brings Ray & Ventura and a U2 tribute act, Saturday has The Guinness Brothers and a Bryan Adams tribute, and Sunday closes with Maritenda Allstars and a Queen tribute, with DJ sets filling the gaps and closing each night. Entry is free throughout. It is organised by the Junta de Freguesia de Boliqueime with support from Loulé town council, and draws a strong turnout from across the municipality.

The spring pools at the foot of Alte village, where cold water, stone picnic tables and big shade trees make the classic inland picnic spot. Fonte Grande and Fonte Pequena have watered Alte for centuries, and the walled pools and cobbled terraces around them are still where village life happens: christenings, São João festivities and long Sunday lunches in the shade. The stream runs cool even in August, and children paddle in the shallow channels below the weir. Verses by Cândido Guerreiro, the village poet, are tiled onto the walls by the water. Follow the stream path east for ten minutes to reach the small Vinagre waterfall, at its best after winter rain. Park at the edge of the village and walk down; mornings are quietest.
Beautiful viewpoint, walking trails, AND beach. Truly a wonderful gem.
A 479 metre limestone ridge above Salir with a looping trail, two old windmills and views to the sea on clear days. The Rocha rises like a grey wall out of the Barrocal, and the classified circular trail of about six kilometres climbs through holm oak and wild olive to a summit plateau where a drystone rampart, said to be over two thousand years old, runs along the edge. Raptors ride the updraughts at eye level, and February covers the slopes in wild orchids and almond blossom. On the way down you pass the pair of restored windmills above Penina. Start at the trailhead in Rocha village, take two litres of water in summer, and allow around three hours for the full loop.
