The town is famous for it's narrow cobbled streets, steps paved with stone and traditional white houses with blue trim.
The old village walls provide an interesting, if awkward, walk. The golf course of Praia D'el Rey is close by and golfers will enjoy the links golf.
Favourites on the menu include Scallop shells with apple and watercress, fried cod with potatoes and onions, roast pork with mashed cauliflower and rich egg and sugar rolls.
