WEST ALGARVE I ALJEZUR I BORDEIRA

When you come to Bordeira, you get the feeling that time runs slower than elsewhere. There is hardly any traffic on the small village streets, and the winding alleys are best explored on foot - all the way up to the look-out point with a view over the valley and the neighbouring hills. In the village there is a small, typical café whose owner knows how to make good coffee, offers small snacks and serves typical Portuguese dishes with a good glass of wine every day. Five times a week, a bakery cart and a fish vendor come and sell their fresh goods on the market square: sardines, robalo, bread or sometimes locally made almond and cinnamon biscuits.

The nearest supermarket is 5 km away in the village of Carrapateira.
