Workation in Olhão: the essentials
Flat-roofed cubic houses in the old fishing quarter give Olhão a look closer to North Africa than to the rest of the Algarve. The town stands on the Ria Formosa next to Faro, a working fishing port with two red-brick market halls on the waterfront and about 45,000 people in the municipality. Ferries run to the sandbar islands of Armona and Culatra, where the beaches are. Artists, chefs and remote workers have moved in and there is some coworking, while parts of town stay rough around the edges and nightlife is thin. Faro Airport is about 11 km away, and Olhão has a stop on the Algarve railway.
