The quiet east

Faro Airport to Monte Gordo

A long, flat beach, pine woods behind it and calm water for small children — about 45 minutes east of the airport, the other way from the crowds.

  • From Faro Airportapprox. 45 min
  • Distanceapprox. 62 km
  • MunicipalityVila Real de Santo António

Monte Gordo is the last resort town before the Guadiana river and Spain. Hotels and apartments line the seafront, and the beach runs for kilometres in both directions, with Manta Rota and Cacela Velha to the west. The drive from Faro is on the eastern stretch of the A22, usually the quietest part of the motorway.

Frequently asked questions

Do you have child seats?

Yes. Add them when you book, in the step after choosing the vehicle, with the children’s ages so the right seat goes in the car.

We have a lot of luggage. Will it fit?

Enter your luggage when you book. For a family with large suitcases, a pushchair or golf bags, choose a van rather than a car — the booking form only shows vehicles where the whole group fits.

Can you take us back to the airport at the end of the holiday?

Yes — book a return to Faro Airport on the same booking and choose the pickup time at your resort. Leave enough time for check-in and security; the earlier the flight, the quieter the road.
