VILA REAL DE SANTO ANTÓNIO - DESCRIPTION
Today, the once noble houses around the main square are showing serious degradation with the passing of time. With the construction to the north of a new bridge in 1991 across the River Guadiana connecting Seville in Spain with the Algarve, the obvious diminishing of the popularity of this town will have further effect. Between this town and the Ocean is the popular beach resort area named Monte Gordo that offers the tourist kilometres of sea washed beach lined with a pine forest. The population of approximately 14,000 inhabitants tend to gain their living either in the tourist industry, fishing, or trading across the river with their Spanish neighbours.

Attached to the Town Hall is a small but interesting museum which is mainly focused on the designs for tins for the fishing industry. It is a very pleasant and relaxing experience to cross the river by ferryboat to visit the Spanish town of Ayamonte, or, take a tourist boat trip upriver to the charming small Portuguese town of Alcoutim.
