Ilha da Cabanas Ria Formosa, Eastern Algarve |
|
Ilha de Cabanas opposite Tavira is the most eastern of the islands of the Ria Formosa that extends from Faro to Cacela Velha east of Tavira, protecting the unique lagoon system against the rough Atlantic Ocean. |
|
| The island Ilha de Cabanas stretches from Tavira to the Quinta da Ria golf course near the picturesque village of Cacela Velha. The beach Praia de Cabanas is located opposite the little village Cabanas, which dates back to the glorious times of tuna fishing in the Algarve. The lagoon here is quite narrow and can be swum across at low tide. There is also a boat that goes from the coast to the island. |
