Join the Scottish Bridge Union for their 16th Overseas Spring Congress in Portugal.  A National Red/Green Pointed Event

Tavira is a charming, traditional Portuguese town in the heart of the Algarve, beautifully preserved and untouched by mass tourism.

Stroll across the Roman Bridge spanning the Gilão River and enjoy the sounds of local musicians as you take in stunning views of the town and riverbanks. Wander through narrow cobbled streets lined with whitewashed buildings and discover why Tavira is known as the “City of Churches” — home to an impressive 37 historic churches.

Climb to the ancient Tavira Castle and explore its tranquil gardens and ruins, offering panoramic views over the town. Immerse yourself in local life with a visit to Tavira’s bustling market, where you’ll find fresh regional produce, local crafts, and an authentic taste of the Algarve. For more sightseeing, hop on the tourist train to Quatro Águas Pier or take a guided Tuk Tuk tour through the historic centre to uncover the town’s rich heritage.  Don’t miss a short ferry ride to Tavira Island, where pristine sandy beaches and nearby salt pans attract flamingos, spoonbills, and other exotic birdlife. For golf enthusiasts, the area offers four excellent 18-hole courses set in scenic surroundings.

The 4-star Hotel Vila Galé Tavira is ideally situated in the town centre, just moments from the coastline, local shops, and top attractions. Inspired by Moorish architecture, the hotel features elegant ceramic tiles and stylish Arabic-themed décor. Its low-rise structure surrounds a large outdoor pool and peaceful gardens, offering a relaxing retreat. Guests also enjoy access to an indoor pool and wellness centre for ultimate relaxation.  All our rooms are pool and garden facing.
