Walking, Birdwatching sights in Portugal

  1. Salt Pans to Quatro Águas

    You can walk 2km east along the river, past the fascinating, snowlike salt pans to Quatro Águas. The salt pans produce tip-top table salt and in summer attract feeding birds, including flamingos. As well as being the jumping-off point for Ilha de Tavira, the seaside hub of Quatro Águas has a couple of seafood restaurants and a former tuna-canning village – now a luxury hotel, across the river. For information on buses to Quatro Águas.
