The beauty of the present lies in the rich tapestry of history that has woven its way through time.



Once upon a time, nestled along the stunning coastline of the Algarve, there were two quaint fishing villages called Burgau and Salema. These villages hold a rich history that dates back centuries, preserving their charm and captivating visitors with their unique stories.


Burgau, with its narrow cobbled streets and traditional white-washed houses, carries the echoes of its humble fishing origins. It was once a bustling fishing community, where locals set sail each day to brave the vast Atlantic Ocean in search of the day's catch. As the years went by, Burgau gracefully evolved into a charming coastal destination, attracting visitors with its untouched beauty and warm hospitality.

Salema, a neighboring village, shares a similar story. It too was built upon the toils of hardworking fishermen who cast their nets into the abundant waters of the sea. This picturesque village has retained its authentic character, offering a glimpse into the traditional Algarvian way of life.

Both Burgau and Salema are deeply rooted in the region's seafaringpast, and the spirit of the ocean can still be felt in their narrow streets and welcoming atmosphere. Today, visitors can wander along the sandy beaches, explore the charming village squares, and indulge in the fresh catch of the day at the local seafood restaurants.
