Visit São Brás de Alportel
In the heart of the Eastern Algarve, the Municipality of São Brás de Alportel is a door that opens to the mountains and a window over the ocean, which curiously peeks out between hills… serene, the healthy air of the mountains and the scent of wild flowers that bloom in the valleys.
Historic center
The historic center is the privileged point from which to discover São Brás de Alportel. The churchyard of the Igreja Matriz offers you a beautiful panoramic view, from the barrocal to the sea, and in its surroundings, you can find some of the most valuable jewels of the county’s heritage.
Archaeological Heritage
Millennia of History have imprinted the marks of the different civilizations that traversed this territory in other eras. With human occupation dating back to the Paleolithic, the municipality of São Brás de Alportel holds a valuable historical heritage.
Buildings Heritage
Rural Heritage
Sprinkling the landscape, numerous elements of the rural heritage invite you to take a walk through the countryside, to discover the history that the places hide. There are mills, fountains, wells, water wheels, watermills, …a valuable legacy from the past, which is a living testimony of a strong Arab heritage.

The Cork Route takes you to discover the mysteries of the ancestral relationship between Man and the Cork Oak.
