Cabanas is situated some 7km east of Tavira, at the beginning of the lagoons of the Ria Formosa Natural Reserve. Cabanas derived it's name from the huts (cabanas) that were erected during the early 18th century by the tuna fishermen to store their fishing gear in, they then eventually built houses for themselves as well and the fishing village of Cabanas de Tavira was born.

Fishing still plays a major role in the economy of Cabanas but for the last 30 years tourism has also played an ever increasing role. What was, until a few years ago, a small, sleepy village with a handful of cafés, is now turning into a very popular tourist resort.

As with any newly popular area, new apartments and houses are springing up around Cabanas, but, certainly at the moment, it hasn't detracted from the character of the town.

The Avenida Ria Formosa runs the length of the lagoon and there is quite a lot of parking space, but you do have to avoid the tables and chairs outside the numerous cafés as they are literally 'on the road'! At the eastern end of the water front is a shady area, frequented by campervans and just beyond.... green fields and trees and a 17th century fort
