  • THE ALGARVE © Lonelyplanetpublications Alternatives, Especiallyforinlandadventures
    © Lonely Planet Publications 178 The Algarve Love it or loathe it, it’s easy to see the allure of the Algarve: breathtaking cliffs, golden sands, scalloped bays and long sandy islands. And let’s not forget (as too many do) the stunning inland area, which boasts beautiful countryside and pretty castle towns. Coastal Algarve, Portugal’s premier holiday destination, sold its soul to tourism in the six- ties and, it seems, it’s still for sale… Just behind the beachscape, especially along the south coast, loom some monstrosities: huge conglomerations of bland, modern holiday villas and brash resorts. For some it’s paradise, for others it’s an abhorrence. THE ALGARVE Whatever your view, there’s no doubting the Algarve’s personality. Underrated Faro boasts beautiful assets, especially the Parque Natural da Rio Formosa; Lagos is the Algarve’s carnival queen; and elegant Tavira boasts a beautiful island beach. The rugged west coast is more relaxed; this enchanting place is more about nature and less about construction (for now, any- way). The laid-back villages of Sagres and Carrapateira attract surf- and sun-loving visitors. But it’s the inner Algarve that really shines. To bypass this area is to miss the Algarve proper: cork tree– and flower-covered hillsides, historic villages (many with restaurants serv- ing intoxicating cuisine), walking tracks and birdlife. Highlights include stunning Silves above the banks of the Rio Arade, sleepy Alcoutim on the picture-perfect Rio Guadiana, and quaint Monchique. The region has some excellent walking opportunities and the Via Algarviana passes through the area.

    Marine Geology 231 (2006) 1–36 www.elsevier.com/locate/margeo Cenozoic seismic stratigraphy and tectonic evolution of the Algarve margin (offshore Portugal, southwestern Iberian Peninsula) ⁎ Fernando C. Lopes a,b, , P.P. Cunha a, B. Le Gall c a Departamento de Ciências da Terra, Univ. Coimbra, Largo Marquês de Pombal, 3000-272 Coimbra, Portugal b Centro de Geofísica, Instituto Geofísico da Univ. Coimbra, Av. Dr. Dias da Silva, 3000-134 Coimbra, Portugal c UMR 6538 CNRS, Institut Universitaire Européen de La Mer, Place Nicolas Copernic, 29280 Plouzane, France Received 16 February 2005; received in revised form 23 May 2006; accepted 24 May 2006 Abstract The Cenozoic seismic stratigraphy and tectonic evolution of the Algarve margin (southwestern border of the Iberian Peninsula) are documented from multichannel seismic reflection data, isochron and time–structure maps. Six seismic units (B to G), bounded by unconformities and probably ranging in age from Campanian to Holocene, are identified. Their ages are derived from: 1) oil exploration wells drilled in the margin; 2) geometrical relationship with the Guadalquivir Allochthonous Unit; 3) correlation with the onshore stratigraphic record of the Algarve basin; and 4) lateral correlation with unconformities dated in adjacent basins and related to tectonic events that affected Iberia during the Cenozoic. Three main tectonic domains, bounded by major fault zones that segment the Algarve margin, are characterised: a western central domain, bounded to the west by the N–S Portimão–Monchique Fault Zone and to the east by the N–S Albufeira Fault Zone; an eastern central domain, bounded to the east by the N140° São Marcos–Quarteira Fault Zone; and an eastern domain located east of this latter structure.

  • Tavira's Guidebook Download This Guide And
    EN tmunicipaliaty virrd Editioan tavira Beautiful empty beaches with sands that seem to go on forever. Fields of orange trees, heavy with the scent of blossom. Then hills of fig and almond trees and houses with dazzling whitewashed walls and distinctive chimneys decorated to resemble the fine tracery of lace. And last of all, the great open spaces of the hills, where eagles soar, birds sing and flowers bloom. This is just a hint of the charms of Tavira and its municipality, an invitation to come and find out more. THE HISTORY OF THE MUNICIPALITY OF TAVIRA The existence of hill forts and megalithic monuments dates the human presence in Tavira municipality to the Neolithic period (4,000 to 1,500 B.C.). In the Chalcolithic and subsequent periods, this presence was associated with the mining operations that flourished in the northeast of the Algarve and with trading links with the Mediterranean. It was on the coast, however, that the largest settlement grew up after the Roman conquest (1st century B.C.), thanks to the economic importance of fishing and the fish-salting industry. The major town of Balsa, situated near to Tavira and connected by road to Ossonoba (Faro) and Baesuris (Castro Marim), dates from this period. Under Moorish rule (8th to 13th centuries), the strategic importance of Tavira’s castle and port made it one of the main towns in the Algarve. It was the Knights of the Order of Sant’Iago (St. James) who occupied Tavira in 1242, continuing the Christian reconquest that began with the taking of neighbouring Cacela.
