The Marina is the main centre of activity with a huge range of restaurants, bars and shops. Luis Figo’s ‘Bar Sete’ (bar 7) is also on the marina front.
During the day, although it can get quite busy, it’s really a very safe and peaceful area. It gets more lively at night, with everyone coming to eat and try out some of the bars, but is still a very relaxed resort.
Boasting a 1,000-berth marina, Vilamoura attracts the wealthy, yachtsmen, golfers, celebrities and in fact, anyone who just fancies enjoying a rather nice place in the sun.
