Cristal water and 37 miles along the white sand beaches
Villa Lage is located in the center of the Ria Formosa Natural Park, a natural park stretching along 60 km of the Algarve coast and protected from the sea by 5 barrier islands and 2 peninsulas. Tidal flats across the Ria are a sanctuary for more than 200 species of birds. Ria Formosa is a well-preserved area with sweeping views of white-sand beaches, estuaries and Deltas, lagoons, salt flats, and marshes.
Tavira and Santa Luzia
Tavira is one of the most elegant and beautiful towns in the Algarve with fine 18th century buildings and 37 churches. It is a fascinating place to explore through winding narrow cobbled streets and pastel-coloured houses with distinctive tiled roofs lining the river Gilão. The Castle walls border the medieval center of the town encompassing a tranquil garden. Climb to the top of the walls and a rich tapestry of tiled rooftops appears below stretching away to the mosiac of saltpans before reaching the blue Atlantic ocean.
Santa Luzia is located at half way towards Tavira and is a small and picturesque village with a rich fishing heritage, famous for the fresh caught seafood, particularly Octopus. Santa Luzia is one of the most captivating sights with colorful fishing boats moored along the waterfront. As you stroll along the shoreline, you’ll be mesmerised by the Kaleidoscope of colours reflected in the tranquil waters special during sunrise and sunset.
