Christmas Bridge Holiday in Tavira, Algarve
Experience the magic of Christmas in Tavira, a charming and traditional Portuguese town on the Algarve. Unlike the typical tourist resorts, Tavira embraces its rich local culture and remains vibrant year-round, offering an ideal festive retreat.
Stroll across the Roman Bridge spanning the Gilão River, where musicians play festive melodies, and enjoy stunning views of the town and river. Wander through narrow streets lined with whitewashed buildings adorned in intricate architecture and twinkling Christmas lights, basking in the winter sunshine.
Discover unique gifts at the Mercado da Ribeira or explore Portuguese brands at the Gran Plaza Tavira shopping complex for something special this Christmas. Known as the “City of Churches,” Tavira is home to an incredible 37 churches. Highlights include the Church of St. Sebastian with its elaborately painted interiors and the Church of Mercy, where you’re likely to catch a heartwarming Christmas choir.
For panoramic views, visit Tavira Castle and explore its ruins and gardens. Delve into the town’s rich history with a guided Tuk Tuk tour, a ride on the tourist train to Quatro Águas Pier, or a visit to the Salt Pans and Tuna Museum. Golf enthusiasts will also find four exceptional 18-hole courses nearby.
Your stay will be at the 4-star Vila Galé Tavira Hotel, centrally located for easy access to Tavira’s beaches, shops, and attractions. This beautifully designed hotel showcases Moorish-inspired decor and elegant ceramic tiles, creating a tranquil ambiance. Relax by the large outdoor pool, unwind in the indoor pool, or pamper yourself at the wellness centre.
Bridge Team: Rob (Director) and Rosa Richardson (Host) are excited to welcome you for a memorable Christmas holiday, complete with engaging bridge sessions, a traditional Christmas lunch, and a festive quiz to enjoy with old and new bridge friends alike.
