Fóia Route
Our ways of doing, feeling and celebrating
Where the Monchique mountains meet the Atlantic ocean, amongst the Algarve's orange groves and olive orchards, this Fóia Route is a mark of traditions and culture.
Awe inspiring
Be amazed with the Church of Nossa Senhora da Conceição and it's sandstone facade, be transported in time with a visit to the Jesuits College, learn about the history of Féu Hermanos Factory, an icon of the fish conserving industry that is a mark of Algarve, feel the past with a visit to Alvor's marabouts or even the ruins of Alcalar.
