You can walk from the old town to a small, gentle, sandy beach, which is especially suitable and safe for small children. During the summer season ferry boats take you to the island “Ilha da Armona”, to the wide Atlantic Ocean, or in the low season the Ria Taxi is available.

Fuseta has a lovely promenade, many simple and good restaurants and cafés, a market hall with fresh fish, vegetables and fruit, some supermarkets and a plethora of other shops. Near the harbour there is regular flea market and in the summer live bands are playing occasionally. A good place for relaxing or meeting people and getting out and about.

If you want to limit your stay to Fuseta town, you do not need a rented car; even a train station is only a few steps from the old part of the town which takes you to Faro, the Capital of the Algarve or Vila Real de Santo António, near the Spanish border.

Fuseta has two beaches for you to choose from.
The first is a small beach on the lagoon in the town itself. This Fuseta beach is very busy in the morning and late afternoon in August, but calm outside of this. When the tide is up it is great to swim. When the tide is down, you are reduced to paddling and exploring the shore. Families with toddlers will like it as being in the lagoon it is wave free and very safe.

Fuseta's other beach is just across the lagoon on Ilha da Armona. At high tide, you can also swim here on the lagoon side without waves. However, the 'real' Fuseta beach is the ocean side. Close to the landing pier, Fuseta beach is packed in high season. However, the beach extends left and right for miles, so those seeking some more peace and privacy can walk for five, ten, twenty minutes or more and find as much beach to themselves as they like. Walking left, it is about a twenty minute to half an hour walk (depending on how many shells you pick on the way) to the tip of the island, the 'Barra da Fuseta'. This is a dream beach landscape and well worthwhile for beach connoisseurs.
