The Algarve stretches along the southern coast of Portugal, from Vila Real de Santo Antonio to Cabo de Sao Vicente. It is bordered on two sides by the Atlantic and divided from the rest of Portugal by a range of low mountains. The region's capital, Faro, is built around a quaint harbor at the edge of a wide lagoon; the Roman ruins of Milreu are nearby. Albufeira is the region's largest resort town and is buzzing with tourist activity for most of the year. Lagos, with its busy port and unforgettable cliffs, and Tavira, notable for its Moorish origins, are interesting destinations. Sagres, Europe’s most southwestern extreme, exhibits the incomparable rugged beauty for which the Algarve is famous. Regional handicrafts include ceramics and blankets, as well as leather and copper goods.
