alvor boardwalk

A beautifully laid out walk around the estuary.Can take around an hour.A huge amount of wildlife,mainly birds.Well worth the effort.

You can vary the length of your walk with several variations. Virtually all on the level with excellent views of Alvor and the estuary. There is a large car park near the start of the walks.The walk can be extended on a good track to the breakwater returning along the beautiful beach.A great facility for all ages.

An excellent facility offering a place for joggers, those wanting access to the beach or a pleasant stroll through an extensive nature reserve. When we went in October in the middle of the migration season there was a very good range of bird species and a few specials. It was very good in the mornings and early evening as the light is in the right place to get the best views of the birds and scenery.

This boardwalk goes for several kilometers behind the sand dunes and out onto the beach. Easy walking and wheelchair accessible. Good views of the Alvor river estuary with plenty of bird watching available.

Bracing walk to give some nice views across the coast and back inland. Take some sun shades as could be v hot mid season.

What a walk so scenic and beautiful .. Could imagine the suntan you would get in warmer weather . Take some water as its a long walk that shows the beauty that Alvor is ..

If you like to walk this is a splendid opportunity.Nice landscape of dunes,however,it's advisable to choose a sunny day without strong winds.

We have been many times and is well worth a visit , Alvor is a lovely old fishing village with many nice restaurants .

gave you great views and you walk right out into the marshlands; was very windy. There was a restaurant that you could reach. Many people were walking their dogs.

Tour not to be missed on a protected natural scenery ! The walking tour is done by the Ria de Alvor, beautiful natural landscape with rich wildlife, particularly birds. Advise early morning or sunsets.

very good walk especialy in the winter because in the summer you would rather go to the 10 km beach next to it

Found the boardwalk easy accessable with no obstacles and very clean...nice comfortable walk,which people of all ages would manage...overlooking the beach.

A great area for a morning run or an evening walk watching the sunset over the sea, you can also takeIn the sights of the fishing boats heading out at night .

Nice and easy walk, I suffer from arthritis in both hips and I was fine walking along the boardwalk where you can see local birds, people collecting shellfish, in between the sand dunes. Worth a wander and it is free!!!

The town fathers hit a home run with this one. Well desinged and executed, it takes you through the salt marsh without tramoing the fauna, and with great views of the estuary and surrounding landscape.Loved it!
