Faro Beach for March

One popular beach option is Ilha de Tavira. This eastern Algarve beach is accessed by ferry from Tavira town centre, taking the ferry is an adventure in itself. Even with the cool sea water temperatures, the more eastern the beach, the warmer the water generally is.  You could test this for yourself and hopefully get lucky. There will be multiple restaurants as well as camping facilities on the island. There is also a reserved area for naturists.

Bars and Restaurants 

With an incredible variety of restaurants, bars, and cafes on hand in Faro you will be spoilt with choice on where to eat & drink.

A great place to beeline for is Bottle Tapas & Wine Bar. Bottle offers both traditional and modern takes on Portuguese Tapas. Enjoy the romantic atmosphere with one of the many wines, gins, and cocktails available. You'll find a nice mix of locals and visitors enjoying the exceptional service found at Bottle.

For something a bit more traditional, head to Aqui Del Rei, which offers authentic Portuguese Cuisine such as cataplana. Weather permitting, you can enjoy the food here in their outdoor tables which sit on a coble stone street in Old Town Faro. It is an excellent value, with the only downside being a bit of a wait, as everything is made from scratch.

Things to do in Faro in March

If travelling at the end of Winter (early March), be sure to take advantage and go on a bird watching trip in AlgarveFormosamar operates the tour for one to four people (140) and explores the Ria Formosa for three hours. The Ria Formosa is one of the most important wetlands for aquatic birds and will have more than 20,000 birds during the Winter months.

If the weather is not great, consider heading to the Maritime Museum (1) on the Faro harbour. The maritime museum, created in 1910, has a vast collection of artefacts that help you understand the maritime and fishing culture of Algarve. The museum is small but well worth the trip. Weather permitting, take a stroll around the museum and admire the cafes and contemporary bars that define the area.
