Lots of tourist skip Faro to head to the main seaside resorts in the Algarve. I think it is a pity, because the city has a nice old core and some pedestrian streets with many shops and cafes. Faro has also a small marina and a beach you can reach by bus (it's some km far from the city).
Faro has an international airport.
