Little escape for slow living
Casa Perto do Mar | Olhão Algarve Portugal
Slow Living in this fast-paced world.
Casa perto do Mar is a former fisherman’s house that has been renovated into a modern townhouse and features a touch of Powders & Hazel.
The townhouse is located in the center of Olhão, making both the boulevard and the ferry within walking distance.
The coastal town of Olhão, known as the capital of the Ria Formosa, is the perfect starting point to explore this enchanting natural park and its picturesque islands. Olhão is surrounded by islands with beautiful white beaches without the usual mass tourism for which the Algarve is known. Soulful Olhão is a city with many faces and lively all year round. You will find the market halls along the waterfront; These are a ‘must’ visit because of the wide variety of very fresh fish and seafood straight from the harbor and an extensive range of locally grown fresh fruit and vegetables. The market halls are surrounded by terraces and it is a great place to sit and enjoy the view of the boats with jazz music in the background from the local café.
