Workation in Vila Real de Santo António: the essentials

Laid out in 1774 on the same grid plan used to rebuild Lisbon after the 1755 earthquake, the easternmost town of the Algarve stands on the bank of the Guadiana facing Spain. The ferry to Ayamonte takes about 15 minutes. It is an ordinary Portuguese town rather than a resort, with a marina, a central square of black and white paving and a well-known sports training centre, and the crowd leans towards retirees and families. The beach is a few kilometres west at Monte Gordo, a long flat strip of sand backed by pines and holiday flats. The regional railway ends here, and Faro Airport is about 55 km west.
