Olhao apartments for
sale Portugal
Olhao lies on the coast reasonably close to
Faro and at the end of the Ria Formosa Nature Reserve.
Architecturally the town is well known for an older quarter
where the flat terraced roofs and straight box-shaped chimneys
show a definite Moorish flavour in their style. Another
important curiosity to the visitor is the fish market held
every day in a long building on the
waterfront.
Relatively unaffected by tourism, Olhao is
the second largest town on the Algarve, a few miles east of its
chief town, Faro. The town's main industry is its sardine and
tuna fisheries.
One of the Algarve´s main fishing ports,
Olhao has square whitewashed houses with flat roof terraces and
chimneys that are evocative of Moorish
architecture.
But the town´s main attraction is its market,
one of the most animated and picturesque of the Algarve, with
an enormous variety of seafood but also local farmers selling
such products as fruit, honey and live
chickens.
In all, a beautiful location if you are
looking for Olhao apartments for sale, either for holidays or a
delightful place to live.
Estate
agents in Olhao have many properties on sale,
including villas, houses, and
apartments.
