What you can expect

Experience life as a local for a day in Olhão!

Stroll through the historic streets and alleys with your guide, and get a glimpse of local life. On Saturday mornings, visit the bustling Municipal Market, where local producers showcase fresh regional products, don’t miss this vibrant part of town!

Olhão is nestled in the heart of the Ria Formosa Natural Park, home to the second-largest fishing port in the Algarve. The town's traditions are rooted in fishing, salt extraction, and shellfish gathering, all part of the locals’ daily life.

Explore the Ria Formosa’s labyrinth of canals, islands, and sandbanks, stretching along 60 km of the Algarve coast. This wetland is a crucial natural environment for both wildlife and the local “Olhanenses” who enjoy its stunning barrier islands and pristine beaches.

Be a local for the day by taking the ferry to Culatra Island, where you can relax on its spectacular beach. Enjoy a delicious lunch featuring freshly grilled fish and local clams. On your return trip, take in the scenic views of the Ria Formosa on the local ferry.
