Does the Private Tour Algarve From Lisbon To Portimão and Lagos  excursion have itinerary items?

Accepted Answer

Located in the estuary of the River Arade, Portimão is known for its excellent sandy beaches with plenty of warm, calm waters, which make it a very alluring holiday destination.  - Portimão has a long fishing tradition that developed particularly between the 19th and 20th centuries with the advent of the canning industry and tourism. Most of the buildings that you see in the streets and squares of the historic centre are from this period, as well as the building that houses the Portimão Museum, a superb refurbishment of an old cannery that received the Museum of the Year award from the Council of Europe in 2010. It pays homage to the people and the city that for centuries have lived exclusively of and for the sea.  - You shouldn’t miss the simply styled Chapel of São José de Alcalar or the impressive Church of Nossa Senhora da Conceição (Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception), built in the 15th century on top of a hill, and standing out in the city’s skyline; it was badly damaged by the 1755 earthquake, but retains its beautiful original Gothic portal. For a break in your meanderings, it’s best to rest in the shade of the trees of the Manuel Bivar Garden to see the fishing boats and pleasure craft sail past. Or on the promenade beside the Marina, one of the liveliest parts of the city both by day and by night.  - Most of the restaurants, where you will find grilled sardines, the favourite local dish, are on the waterfront, next to the docks. Although sardines are eaten throughout the region and indeed across the country, they are particularly famous in Portimão and have a festival in their honour in August. But there are many other fish and seafood specialties to try, such as clams, whelk bean stew, casseroles and bouillabaisses. Broad beans, cornmeal (a kind of polenta) and the traditional almond- and fig-based sweets of the region are a few more in the wide range of ingredients on offer.  - Praia da Rocha, about 3 kilometres from the centre, is perhaps the best known beach in the Algarve, with the picture postcard scene of its huge swathe of sand being widespread internationally. It’s been a busy seaside resort since the beginning of the 20th century, and it has a casino and offers an endless number of leisure activities. It also had great strategic importance in the 15th century. It was here that the Fortress of Santa Catarina de Ribamar was built to defend the harbour and the population from attacks by pirates, providing crossfire with the São João do Arade Fort, right in front in Ferragudo, alongside another extensive sandy beach aptly called Praia Grande.  - The Praia da Rocha Fortress provides today an excellent view over the city, the river and the sea, which acquires a special charm in the evening, in the light of the setting sun. From here you can also catch sight of some of the beaches to the west, beginning with the Três Castelos Beach. Some smaller, others larger, but always framed by jagged rocks that embellish the landscape, here you’ll find Careanos, Vau, Barranco das Canas, João d'Arens, Prainha and Três Irmãos beaches. This sequence ends at the long sandy beach of Praia do Alvor and its estuary, an area of lagoons important for aquatic bird watching.  - But to get a complete view of the Portimão area, you must look at it from all perspectives. For example, take a boat trip along the coast to discover beaches inaccessible by land and admire the rock formations. And those who are fans of game fishing will find this the ideal destination, because this fertile sea abounds in large species such as swordfish. To enjoy other landscapes, you can go up the estuary of the River Arade to Silves, passing between green hills. Along a short distance, you’ll find a varied range of images that will stay etched in your memory. - Praia da Rocha is a beach in the municipality of Portimão, Algarve (Portugal). This beach has a large expanse of sand, covering a total area of 146 000 m², along 1.5 km of coastline. Next to the beach stands the Santa Catarina Fortress, built in the 17th century to ensure the defense of the Arade river bar. - This beach located on the Caramujeira site, in the middle of the coastal zone of Lagoa, Algarve, has become well known not only for its beautiful cliffs, but also for the high water quality that allows you to see the seabed with a unique visibility. Praia da Marinha has been widely used by international advertising agencies and television stations to record advertisements. - It is the main beach in the municipality of Lagoa. It is a fishermen's beach and a cosmopolitan tourist center. It has a small bay with transparent waters, which makes it quite sheltered. - Lagos is a town in the Algarve region in southern Portugal. It is known for its walled old town, cliffs and Atlantic beaches. Steep wooden steps lead to the sandy cove of Camilo Beach. The nearby cliffs of Ponta da Piedade offer stunning views of the headland and a lighthouse. St. Anthony's Church, an ornate 18th-century church, is opposite the Governors' Castle, a castle with a baroque facade and towers. - The cliffs of the Ponta da Piedade headland is one of the finest natural features of the Algarve. This dramatic limestone coastline is formed of sea pillars, fragile rock arches and hidden grottos, all of which have been chiselled-out by savage winter storms. - The Ponta da Piedade is a bleak and windswept headland, and the beauty of the region is only discovered on descending the cliffs, where the exposed cliffs reveal their golden colour, and the turquoise sea waters lap precariously balanced rock formations. The headland can only be described as stunning. - It is a small beach between cliffs, with interesting rock formations. Its waters are clear and calm. Access to the beach is by a long staircase. - The Praia da Dona Ana is one of the most picturesque beaches of the Algarve, and is a great location for your day on the beach. - The Dona Ana beach is located to the south of Lagos and is situated within the limestone cliffs of the Ponta da Piedade headland. This is a beautiful natural setting; the highly eroded cliffs reveal layers of golden strata, the calm sea waters are an idyllic turquoise colour, and the sands are soft and inviting. Along with the wonderful scenery, there are are all the expected facilities of a popular beach, including beach restaurants, shops and showers!
