Alvor's fishing port is located on the banks of the Ria de Alvor, near the old village center. It's a small, charming harbor where traditional fishing boats still dock daily. You often see fishermen at work, and the harbor is surrounded by cozy fish restaurants and terraces overlooking the lagoon. It's an authentic place that perfectly reflects Alvor's maritime character.

Although the place lives more and more from tourism, fishing is an important part of Alvor. At the southern end of the harbor promenade there is the fishing port with pretty fish halls.

The old town, which has preserved its original character, is worth seeing.
