[QUOTE=lena green;66487]Hi Manor Park, great news .......more beer, my beer bank will be overflowing before long!!

Are you both coming to live in Fuseta? I wonder or buying to let? it gets so full in the summer I cannot park there as many apartments are owned by wealthy Portuguese from Lisbon. The apartments are closed all year as they don`t rent out so accomodation is much sort after. I have my place on long term rental but I am informed its good for a 1000 a week for three months of the year if let...............so I go there on the HD (Harley Davidson) its easier to park !! and a real crowd puller.

There is quite a lot of renovation going on in Fuseta and has good future plans and, of course you can cop a boat there straight to the islands, now thats something different.Simple life out there with lots of beachfront and sand.

Fuseta is full of quaint old buildings with great architecture dating back years. I love the place, never any problems, great beaches,ugly girls and good restaurants for miles around.
It would be nice if they would close the campsite though and build on there as its prime land........now thats a place you wanna buy if ever it comes up for sale !


Regarding your comment about the campsite in Fuseta, I hope it is never sold off as you suggest. It is one of the few areas in Fuseta where there trees, there are fishermens huts, a boule pitch, childrens play ground and the people that stay there give the river front area a special ambiance. It the campsite were to go, it would rip something special out of the town. The eastern algarve is great because property is being built but in a more sustainable way.

The people that like this area do so because it is about so much more than lying in the sun and drinking excessive amounts of alcohol. The history, culture, landscape and nature are what I and my family like to drink in large amounts when we go there.

PS the Chinese next to the Post Office is nothing special, why not try one of the Portuguese restaurants (you are in Portugal after all) I recommend Restaurant Scandinavia just up the road from the fish market.
