Olhão is a characterful fishing town with a pretty waterfront, a busy fishing harbour and a maze of cobbled back white streets that share all the secrets of the place. Olhão opens out onto the calm waterways and lagoons of the Parque Natural da Ria Formosa, while to the south are the sandbar islands of Ilha da Armona and Ilha da Culatra, both offering beautiful calm beaches.
