Cần Quan Tâm
Cacela Velha
Cacela Velha is a village located in an arenytic elevation opposite the Ria Formosa and the sea, whose fortress glimpses one of the most beautiful panoramic of the Algarve sotavento. It was a passageway for Greek and Phoenician sailors, and according to some authors it was Cunistorgis, the former capital of the Cunees. The Romans expanded it and the Arabs gave it prestige.
Fortaleza de Cacela
The Cacela Fortress was built in the 18th century, but its origins go back to prehistoric occupations, Greek, Phoenician, Roman and Arab. Situated on an arenytic elevation overlooking the Ria Formosa and the sea, it stands out for the panorama of the Algarve sotavento. Reconstructed after the earthquake of 1755, it has a polygonal structure and served as a strategic defense point. Today it is part of a museum core and has been a National Monument since 1984.

5.00A fantastic experience combining nature, culture, and local flavours. Exploring Cacela Velha was a highlight — a peaceful village with stunning views over the Ria Formosa lagoon. The visit to the salt pans was equally fascinating, offering insight into traditional salt production and the chance to spot local wildlife, especially birdlife unique to the area. Our driver made the tour exceptional. He was informative, engaging, and clearly passionate, sharing detailed knowledge about the history of tuna fishing, the salt manufacturing process, and the region’s current industries. His enthusiasm really brought the experience to life. The day ended perfectly in Cabanas de Tavira with a meal at Al.Fama. The food was excellent — authentic, fresh, and full of local flavour — with a welcoming atmosphere to match. Overall, a well-rounded and enriching tour that provides a genuine insight into the Algarve’s heritage and natural beauty. Highly recommended.
