Workation in Alvor: the essentials

Fishing boats still tie up on the Ria de Alvor, the estuary that shapes this former fishing village about 5 km west of Portimão. Its whitewashed centre runs down to a line of seafood restaurants at the harbour, and a long sandy beach stretches from the dunes to the cliffs at Três Irmãos. The estuary's salt marshes are a protected wetland with boardwalk trails and birdlife. It is smaller and mellower than Lagos or Albufeira, with about 6,000 residents at the 2011 count, though many flats are holiday lets and the village is busy in July and August. Portimão has the bigger shops and the train, and Faro Airport is about 55 km away.
