Fiesa International Sand Sculpture Festival

This exhibit is nothing like the sculptures I remember creating on the beaches of the Algarve as a kid. This is way beyond my pail and shovel.

Incredible work done by very talented artists, a great display whether you have kids, or you are a big kid. Who knows maybe you’ll be inspired to play in the sand all over again!

This year’s theme is Wonders of the World, to match Lisbon’s 7 Wonders - beautifully done!

Fatacil Lagoa Algarve Fair

This was my first visit to Fatacil. I have been to many local fairs and was expecting something similar to what I had seen before. I was pleasantly surprised; Fatacil is in a class of its own. It showcases products from all over the country such as hand crafted wooden spoons, glass blowing, wicker chairs, beautiful leather goods for riding and foot wear, pure wool products, arraiolos, traditional pastries, wine, Portuguese ceramics & Azulejos, products for the home, animals, and even handcrafted body armor! With over 800 vendors there’s a lot to cover, I recommend taking an appetite for things that are original and a little room in the belly for something good to nibble.

We had a long wait from some roasted chicken but it was amazing, we were however a little more careful with the sweets this time, but couldn’t pass up the chocolate and fruit skewers….one word….yum!

Fatacil is well organized and very much worth a visit, there is plenty to see, do and eat don’t miss this - well worth the €4.00 entrance fee.
