What is it like to drive a motorcycle in the Algarve?

Driving in the Algarve is a safe and easy experience. In 2011, a toll system was created on the A-22 motorway, in order to circulate along the Algarve Coast. In addition to the cost of circulating, we must also add the continuous complications with the electronic toll system. Although driving along this motorway is the fastest way to get around the region, you can get around the N-125, which is completely free, but this means encountering traffic jams, traffic lights and going through different towns. Speed ??limits are 50 km/h in urban areas, 90 km/h on highways and 120 km/h on motorways. The alcohol limit allowed is 0.05% and the use of a helmet is mandatory.

What tourist attractions in the Algarve can I visit by motorcycle?

You can start in the East, where the famous Ría Formosa Natural Park and coastal towns such as Fuseta or Olhao, Monte Gordo and, especially, Tavira stand out; a city full of history and streets that overlook the Gilao River, with a wide variety of restaurants and terraces. Very close to Tavira you will find the Island of Tavira, it is only accessible by boat, so you will have to rest from the motorcycle to enjoy its fine sand beaches. In Faro, you will find a unique historic center and its cathedral.

The center of Algarve is the place where sun and beach tourism is concentrated. Albufeira is its main city, where you can enjoy its wonderful beaches such as Praia da Oura or Beach Maria Luisa. In this area you will also find the towns of Vilamoura and Quarteira. The Benagil cave is one of the most impressive attractions to visit.

You will also find charming towns such as Silves and Carvoeiro. You should not miss the da Rocha beach, the cliffs of San Vicente and the small town of Sagres.

Do not say goodbye to the island without trying its traditional food such as the seafood cataplana or its grilled meat and fish that you can taste, for example, at the Modesto Tavern in Faro.

All in all, riding a motorcycle or a scooter in Algarve is a totally safe and undoubtedly unforgettable experience.
