I was wondering how to spend my last day in Faro. I had two possibilities: Parque Natural da Ria Formosa which is a nature reserve of the rare species of birds or the Desert Island. I went with the latter, And I didn't regret.
The waterside from which ferry boats set off to the Desert Island
The Desert Island is a sandy island located near Faro where you can only find beaches and one restaurant. In order to get there I had to get on a ferry and I paid 10€ for a round ticket.
Fishermen on the Desert Island
I have to admit that the Desert Island is a perfect place for relaxation. Clean sand, only a few tourists...
