The Vila Real de Santo António Lighthouse (Farol de Vila Real de Santo António) is located in the far east of the Algarve, near the Spanish border. Built in 1923, it stands 40 meters tall.

An important natural product is extracted from the sea's saltwater here. Only through the power of the elements, sun and wind, which evaporate the water in the saltworks' shallow basins, does pure salt remain.
