The neighborhood:
Ferragudo is a place in the Algarve quieter, for those who want to rest outside the more touristy cities. With beaches of fantastic natural beauty, mild climate, and a more peaceful environment, cozy and close to local fishermen, making it one of the most beautiful postcards to visit the Algarve.
Characterized by a hillside full of typical houses, a stone wall that divides the land, the sea that enters by a river almost to the door of the inhabitants, and the wooden boats anchored almost at random to complete the landscape, and where the background of this landscape is the city of Portimão and you can see the masts of the sailboats resting in the colorful Marina.
The village of Ferragudo is recognized for its excellence, picturesque places, and friendly inhabitants, which make the place a great choice for a relaxing vacation.
Getting around:
Although everything in and around Ferragudo is only a few steps from the apartment, the Algarve still has a lot to offer!
As public transportation is non-existent or extremely slow, I highly recommend renting a car and exploring the Algarve independently. Use the FREE PARKING PLACES directly in front of the apartment building and explore the Algarve without stress and without schedules.
Even without a car, you can easily visit Praia da Rocha / Portimão simply by taking the ferry from Ferragudo harbor to Portimão Marina. During the summer season, the ferry even goes into the night!
AIRPORTS:
Faro Airport (FAO) is about 45 minutes away by car (68 km).
Lisbon Airport (LIS) is approximately 2.5 hours away (275 km).
