Introducing Silves

Boasting one of the best-preserved castles in the Algarve, Silves is a town of jumbling orange rooftops scattered above the banks of the silted up Rio Arade. Although it’s an undeniably pretty setting, there isn’t much to the town apart from Silves’ red-stone walls and fortress, a handful of sleepy backstreets and one very lively restaurant. It’s 15km northeast of Portimão.
