Faro Airport is the main entry point to the stunning Algarve for people from all over Europe and beyond.

The airport handles around six million passengers a year, with Ryanair servicing most flights.
There is one terminal at Faro Airport, where you can buy euros at the bureau de change or withdraw them from your account via an ATM. There are many shops, including souvenir and duty-free stores, as well as a food court, a café and a coffee shop. Car parking is available in front of the terminal.
The Algarve stretches for miles and there are resorts all the way along the coast, so it pays to have a car when visiting. Among others, Budget, Hertz, and Rentauto are located in Arrivals and vehicles can be pre-booked online.
