Tavira, otherwise known as The Little Venice of Portugal, in the 1500s was a port of great strategic importance. The events of that period have left an enduring mark on the layout and appearance of the city.

Locally caught fresh fish, grilled on an open fire the traditional way, is an obvious choice in any of the many restaurants combined with the red wines of the region.
