Where to stay in Montenegro

Whole beach to ourselves! The beach in Faro is often overlooked in favour of the other beaches along the Algarve, making it quiet and unspoilt. Close to the airport, it's definitely worth a visit!

Praia de Faro

Though Praia de Faro might not have many top sights, you can venture to the surrounding area to see attractions like Faro Island Beach and Parque Natural da Ria Formosa.
