Portugal 2026

In February 2026 my sons and I spent a week at the Algarve. We stayed at Tavira from where we did day trips to the corners of the Algarve and one into the Alentejo region. The majority of the sightings can be found at https://pt.observation.org/ 

15-02-2026 we arrive at Faro and after collecting the rental car we drove to the accommodatie in Tavira. The room was perfect and from the balcony we looked out on the estuary. From here we could already observe Slender-billed Gulls, Gannets and Caspian Terns flying by. In the vegetation in front a Bluethroat was singing and Sardinian Wablers skulked through the tamarisks.
