Montenegro

Few communities in the Faro area have a history as closely tied to the growth of air travel as Montenegro. Immediately northwest of Faro Airport, this residential area stands beside the Ria Formosa, the lagoon system running along the Algarve coast. The nearby Ria Formosa Natural Park protects wetlands, channels and barrier islands, placing Montenegro in a markedly different setting from Faro’s historic centre. Faro’s walled Cidade Velha, with its medieval cathedral, remains an important reference point for the city’s past.
