At the heart of it all is the old village with its narrow streets running down to the water's edge where the fishing boats are moored. In recent years it has been enveloped by several highly-rated resorts luxurious developments, and a great many holiday apartment blocks. In amongst the suburbia is the Alto Golf's 18-hole course, the last to be designed by the legendary English golfer, Sir Henry Cotton. His first course in the Algarve was the championship course of the venerable Penina Hotel not far from Alvor.
Alvor is a small fishing village that has recently grown into a major tourist center. You can still watch the fishermen bring in their catch daily down at the old quay but now there is also a new marina and numerous up-to-date tourist facilities.
The beach of Alvor Praia is one of the longest and flattest in the region and it has lovely soft sand and a dozen beach bar and restaurants.
Alvor restaurants worth a visit include Canico,Fishermans Rest,Vagabondo,Buzio!
