Luxury holidays in Tavira

When to go

Visit between June and August for the warmest weather; but those hoping to explore the town without the heat may be happier visiting during spring or autumn, when temperatures rarely reach beyond 27°C.

Getting there

• Planes

  Faro is the closest airport to Tavira; once you land, hop in a taxi for just over half an hour to reach the town. If you aren’t in a rush, take a 20-minute shuttle bus into the centre of Faro and then a one-hour bus to Tavira.

• Automobiles

  Rent a car from Faro for an easy way to get around. If you’re going on foot, don’t fear, Tavira is easily walkable; bike hires are available and ferries can take you between the town centre and the beaches.
