One and half hour drive to Seville. Pop over to Spain in 20 mins to the first town, Ayamonte.
Tavira is renowned for its 38 historic churches and its four beautiful bridges spanning the Gilao river which divides the town and allows for spectacular riverside views of the medieval town and river life. Numerous cafes and restaurants line the river, public gardens and quiet squares, offering an array of traditional patisseries and fresh fish dishes. The castle walls border the medieval centre of town, encompassing tranquil gardens and a camera obscura. From here scan over the rich tapestry of peaked rooftops to the estuary leading through the mosaic of salt pans and far out into the Atlantic.
Just nearby to Vila Barharra, wet your feet in a spectacular natural waterfall and a true 'blue lagoon'.
