We ended up in Tavira on the southern shores of Portugal. We then walked about 4kms to the ferry point where we caught a boat across the 500 meters to Ilha Da Tavira. This island was an absolute dream of a place. There was a campsite in the middle of this sandy island and on the south side an awesome beach stretching for miles. It was very crowded at the time but we loved it so much that we stayed for 4 days just bathing in the sun and warm waters.
The town itself of Taviria was a little less hectic than the island, with the Rio Gilao flanked by the two main streets and the hill top ruins of the castle looking down on the former fishing village.
