    Hiking

    This is where the short and fun ride ends. The two trains run in a shuttle service, and you never have to wait too long.

    Hiking

    The Ilha de Tavira stretches from Tavira to approximately Fuseta. It is 11 kilometers long. The three main beaches with amenities are Praia da Ilha de Tavira in the east, Praia da Terra Estreita to the west, and Praia do Barril a little further west. Walking a little further west, you'll reach a stretch of beach with the unofficial name "Praia do Homem Nu" (Naked Man's Beach). The meaning is self-explanatory. While swimming and sunbathing naked is illegal in Portugal, it is tolerated here.
