The Albergaria dos Fusos Dam is an important strategic reserve of drinking water that supplies the municipalities of Cuba, Vidigueira, Alvito, Viana do Alentejo and Portel.
It is located in an area with excellent potential for the development of tourism, due to its good environmental conditions, natural resources, natural and built heritage, and good conditions for outdoor activities, such as water sports and sport fishing, among others.
The shape of the reservoir, the beauty of the water surface and the existence of some points of interest, not only from a heritage point of view but also from a natural point of view, encourage its discovery, on foot or by boat, and have attracted many visitors over the years.
