Beach

Built in 1514, this former warehouse (possibly an armory) was converted into a cistern in the sixteenth century. It's famous especially for the thin layer of water that covers the floor, and which creates fine and exciting reflections. Several movies have been filmed there, of which Orson Welles' Othello is the best known internationally.

The World Heritage listed Portuguese town from 16th century. A great spot for a stroll, as well as a go-to point for photographers. There is a circular walk on top of the city walls.

Popular among locals and thus gets packed during summer months. Plenty of restaurants.
