Olhao, Algarve- Portugal Family Trip

Discover the secrets of the Algarve at the Real Marina Hotel and Spa, situated on the eastern side of the Algarve. Here, you’ll have magnificent views over the Ria Formosa Natural Park – one of the seven wonders of Portugal. If being surrounded by natural landscapes and unspoilt scenery sounds like heaven, you’ll love this peaceful, family-friendly destination. There’s no better opportunity for relaxation than at the spa – its facilities include a heated swimming pool with hydro-massage jets, and you can pay a little extra for spa treatments, or to enjoy the sauna and the Turkish bath. Plus, it comes with spectacular views over the Ria Formosa. Outdoors you’ll find a swimming pool, including an area for little ones to swim, where you can go for refreshing dips between sunbathing sessions. More active types can head to the fully-equipped gym for a workout or two. Holidays to Olhao let you escape the tourist trail. Its sleepy streets play host to lovely scenery, including ancient Moorish architecture, Catholic cathedrals and a pretty fishing port. Down by the waterfront there’s a promenade made for strolling, and beautiful public gardens where you can escape the heat of the sun. You’ll also spot a couple of 17th-century chapels, where fishermen once prayed for safety from the dangers of the sea. Olhao’s fishing industry is still thriving, and the resort is very much characterised by its bobbing fishing boats and fascinating fish market – the Algarve’s largest. Olhao is at the eastern end of the lush Ria Formosa Nature Reserve. This area of marshland and lagoons stretches for some 40 miles, and is crammed with wildlife, particularly shellfish and rare birds. If you’ve still got some energy left after exploring Ria Formosa, pick one of the trails leading up the Serra de Monte Figo mountain.
