Another great area even closer to VRSA is Odeleite with the fantastic lakes and still being close to the river. It's better to cross the bridge to Spain and shop at Lidl or Mercadona, they both have a better selection at 2/3rds the price and of course fuel is cheaper as well.

Looks like the type of place to perfect one's Portuguese due to talking to the locals over a coffee every day. Beautiful! Nice to see this area.

Great video! I have great memories of VRSA. I have been there several times over the years. For great seafood we always go to the fisherman's pier by the Guadiana. The fishermen had a set up a few tables beside their shack. On a long ice-laden table the day's catch was on display. You went up, picked your fish and they grilled it for you. Along with a couple of bottles of chilled Monsaraz, it was heaven. My cousin was there only last year, so it must still be there.

Hey Nick- great video. This is what Portugal needs i.e. showcasing the “non-touristy “ spots. The days of easy entry are now thankfully behind us which in my opinion did not help the local Portuguese population, especially when it came to housing.

I really enjoy the history in your videos. They were just celebrating (Sept-8) the reconquest in Santa Ponsa from 1229. I’m trying to figure out if the Moors were just absorbed into the main population or they fled. Pretty, small town. Love the EV (yes, infrastructure is mandatory). Thanks for today’s video. PS: No, Alcoutim is too remote (and I don’t speak Portuguese)…
@AlgarveAddicts2 ай бұрын
Santa Linda in Majorca? You'll find that the Moors sometimes fled and some remained. There was a big movement to "Christen" both the remaining Moors and the Jews during the Inquisitions which happened in both Spain and Portugal.
Love, love, love my EV. It would kill me to go back to ICE. If you sign up to Miio you get a card which you prepay, just connect and tap the card to charge.

Here is how you can learn some more Portuguese watch this video in our channel just made LEARN EUROPEAN PORTUGUESE THROUGH MUSIC - O Portugues Marinheiro (FADO) ENG LYRIC SYNC TRANSLATION. If you like please like and comment and even maybe give us ideas on topics we can make music and translations on.

Great video. Well shot, and I've always wondered about the zip line, thanks. PS The real estate across the river in Spain, 30 metres away, is half the price. Portugal needs to allow more land to be built on to bring prices down. It's that simple - and as someone who has ridden 30,000 km around the Algarve interior on my motorbike, I know at first hand how much empty land is available...
