Alvor is a charming little village, of the unknown Algarve. A fishing village, next to Portimão, but, so close (10 minutes from Portimão and Praia da Rocha and 15 minutes from Albufeira) and so far away, for it’s inspiring calm, total absence of confusion, that make you wonder if you are in some other dimension.

The Alvor is a fishing village, known to Romans and Arabs, that developed it (you can find ruins of a castle in the center of the village), one of the most known places of the Algarve, with fishing boats in the lagoon, the typical streets, the central square, the bars and esplanades, the restaurants, one idyllic place to go.

Probably the Carthaginians founded Alvor and its history is interesting. It is said by some that it was really the site of "Portus Hannibalis". The Romans gave it the name Ipses and it was considered an important port and was allowed to issue its own money. Its richness is confirmed by the ruins of a rich Roman villa located slightly inland from the now village. In the time of the Moors who first occupied the place in 716, they gave it the named of "Albur" and the town passed through both the Portuguese and Moors hands several times until 1250 when the Christians conquered it for the final time. King Dom João II, who is regarded as an outstanding Portuguese king, is recorded as dying in 1495 within the town walls from a prolonged illness. Most of the original town has been destroyed in the earthquakes of 1532 and 1755.

Although, this ancient coastal village is now a very popular holiday location the one-ended narrow streets have restrained the developers from changing too much. Many of these streets now boast bars with live music and different types of restaurants but leading off from these there are still memories of the older fishing village. In the area are a number of holiday resorts that feed these streets with tourists. The village is well located facing a natural lagoon opening onto the sea. There is a choice of a long open sandy beach or a number of small coves tucked under the cliffs. The attractive 16th Century Parish Church that seems the only building that survived the earthquake of 1755 and has a prime example in its main doorway of the great craftsmanship of the Manueline era of architecture.
