Silves | Portugal Special Report
Silves is a fascinating historical delight and excellent place to make your new home. It’s a popular vacation destination and a day tripper’s paradise… but it has a different vibe to most of the beach resorts nearby. It’s a proper town, where people live, work, commute, and socialize.
It’s home to a population of about 11,000, made up of many Portuguese people and expats from across the world. This is the real Algarve—before tourism captured and transformed so much of this area. Living here is like stepping back in time…

Sintra | Portugal Special Report
Most people know Sintra from a tourist perspective and associate it with misty green hills and palaces… While that view isn’t completely wrong, the truth is that there’s more to Sintra than meets the eye.
Sintra is not only a historical town but also a municipality. This means several parishes and a substantial variety of housing options, from commuter towns to villages to luxury properties.
Sintra sits somewhere between a busy town and a quiet village. This balancing act is part of its charm and reflects its evolution across the centuries. Discover all that Sintra has to offer in this Portugal Special Report.

Tavira, Portugal | Portugal Special Report
Tavira is an ancient town in southeastern Portugal, found where the Atlantic Ocean meets a sun-blessed stretch of coastline peppered with islands and lagoons. It’s a river town, spliced by the River Gilao, with attractive squares full of restaurants, cafés, and social buzz on either side.
Tavira is relatively small, with a population of 28,000 people. Forming part of that number are more and more expats who hail from Sweden, Italy, France, Germany, Britain, and more recently, Canada and the United States. They’re drawn in by Tavira’s offer of easy, peaceful living in what is considered to be the Algarve’s most charming town.

Sao Bras de Alportel | Portugal Special Report
At an ancient crossroads in the hills of the eastern Algarve, the town of São Brás de Alportel has a rare claim to fame in inland Portugal: its population is steadily growing. It has bucked the trend of depopulation, which has taken out many of the Algarve’s smaller villages.
São Brás is an inland municipality of some 11,000 people. A palpable sense of community, astute political leadership, and some key practical considerations have set it on a winning path. Today, its population has a growing international flair.
São Brás is not a prime Algarve beauty spot, but it has a small, scenic old quarter with a church and narrow, cobbled streets, plus it’s only 15 minutes to the sea. Discover São Brás’ little gems in this Portugal Special Report.
