The nearest amenities are 3km away and beautiful blue flag sandy beaches and island lagoons all along the coast are located within 5 to 10 minutes reach by car. A short drive from the villa you can enjoy some of the best beaches in the Algarve offering seclusion and quiet to water sports and restaurants. Tavira's main beach is accessible by regular ferries, which take visitors to the 11km of beaches of Ilha de Tavira where the vast tracts of sand provide an idyllic spot to sunbathe and relax. The wide, safe and clean sandy beach is one of Tavira's key features with restaurants and beach bars. In summer, there are watersports. The beautiful Barril beach is accessed by either a mini train or footpath through the protected wetlands of Ria Formosa. It has good eating facilities set in an original tuna fishing settlement. The extensive sandy beach at Manta Rota is also highly recommended, easily accessible by car. Benamor Golf Course is literally a couple of minutes away. Other courses within a very short drive from the villa include Quinta da Ria/Quinta de Cima and Castro Marim, as well as the exclusive Monte Rei course designed by Jack Nicklaus. Alternatively, there are a number of courses just over the border in Spain. The Ria Formosa Nature Reserve is a paradise for walkers and birdwatchers alike. For people who prefer a little more strenuous exercise there is also a local kitesurfing school, horse riding, tennis and many mountain bike trails. Boats leave the pier for deep-sea fishing all along the Algarve Coast. An excellent commuter train service connects all the coastal towns of the Algarve with a frequency of 1 train per hour during the day and connects Tavira with the twice daily Faro-Lisbon express. The Spanish border is 20 minutes away, while Seville is a 2 hour drive and a good day trip location or alternative flight destination. Tavira is a charming mix of old and new – Roman, Moorish and Portuguese features abound. The typical Portuguese features of the town are well preserved and the low-key tourist industry coexists alongside a vibrant local economy and culture. There are many restaurants and fish is a specialty. Inexpensive restaurants, bars and cafes abound in Tavira and the surrounding villages. From June through September, there is an abundance of street entertainment in the form of concerts, outdoor cinema festivals, street theatre, markets, fairs, processions and workshops.
