Olhão has a superb local character with a strong Moorish influence, as yet untouched by tourism. A must see is the local market just a short walk from the apartment on the water front where you can pick up freshly caught fish everyday (except Sunday). Next to the fish market is the indoor produce, meat and cheese market. British and foreign newspapers are available in news stands. It is a large town with plenty of restaurants, particularly specializing in seafood. The new shopping complex (Ria Shopping) has 80 small shops, a large supermarket, restaurants/bars and a cinema. There are several supermarkets within walking distance of the apartment. |

We really enjoyed our time in Olhao. It was a nice and small Portugeese town with a fantastic fish market! We spent three days out on the islands - beautiful beaches, did not know we had that nice beaches in Europe :) One day we went by bus to Vilamoura just to find out that Olhao was much better! The apartment was really nice, new and clean. We appriciate to feel comfortable in the holiday home and that we really did in your apartment. Comments from our first guest in September who were from Sweden. |
