Means of access Fly to Faro. Car hire can be arranged for pickup (and subsequent drop off) at the airport. Many people have successfully arranged this through the Internet. There are many companies that provide car hire. From the airport follow the signs for the A22 to Portimao for about 4 kms. Turn right at the sign for A22 Lisboa, Portimao, Loule. Follow on round onto the IC4. Continue on this road for about 5 Kms until the road diverges. Get into the left hand lane for Lisboa, IP1, Portimao, Loule, A22. (should you miss this opportunity you will end up on the N125 which will still take you towards Silves – It is merely a slower road than the A22 motorway). Continue past the football stadium on the right until Junction 4 A22 Lisboa, Portimao, Albufeira. This turning is immediately after the turning for Spain (A22 Espanha, Olhoa – please do not take this turning). Once on the A22 continue until the turning for Silves. Take this turning and continue into Silves. When you enter the town crossing over a bridge you will be faced with traffic lights. Turn left here and continue with the river on your left and the town on your right. Continue driving, crossing over two roundabouts before leaving Silves. Drive through the village of Falacho and continue past Mira Rio Restaurant (on your left) where there is a small bridge and the road takes a sharp left turn. There is then a long straight stretch followed by a shorter straight stretch and a left hand turn in the road. About two hundred metres after this turn is the turn off to the right for CASA VERDE.
Hints and Tips THE SILVES AREA
This area is ideally located as a starting point for much that the Algarve has to offer. Silves, itself is a small town of considerable historical interest. It has a hill top castle built by the Moors at a time when Silves was the capital city for the region. However its history is even early with connections to the Roman occupation and even early times when the Phoenicians visited on route to north western Europe. Short drives away are the beaches and giant water parks, including Zoo Marine which has dolphin displays as well as rides and other attractions. Silves is also ideal starting point for trips into the mountains. Monchique is only some twenty five minutes away and a little further along one reaches the highest point on the Algarve – Foia. From here the views are to the coasts on both the south and west. Along the route to Monchique there are many small restaurants many of which serve the famous Chicken Pir-Piri. Also within easy driving distance from Silves are many golf courses including Palmares (20 minutes) and Penina (10 minutes).
