Faro is a small city but it had a number of activities and things to see. The food was great, as a vegan I found many options, both in restaurants and supermarkets. I would definitely recommend going to the beach to watch the sunset, taking the boat for a little trip around the islands and going on a bike ride on Ria Formosa. I would avoid taking a ticket for one island at a time, you should just get the hop on hop off, I think it saves some money. I stayed in Faro for a month volunteering at Tilia Hostel. It's a very nice and clean hostel with a really homey vibe and I would definitely recommend it. Faro is a small city, you won't need transportation in Faro but you definitely do for going to the beach and to the national park(the bus 16 for the airport) The bus ticket is 2,70€. For the airport I paid 8€ at 3:30 with bolt, so the airport is very close too. For safety, there was a lot of catcalling and men staring, I think a little more than I've experienced at other cities. When you can, especially if it's Friday or Saturday, avoid walking the streets where the bars are alone because there's a lot of drunk men. I would not go out alone at night but I would and I did went out with people from the hostel and it was great, very fun nights.

Faro is a small but very cozy town. It's nice that you get to know the way around after a while. If you feel like you've seen everything in the town, you can easily take the bus to another city. The atmosphere in Faro is very good. It's very fun to explore the nature reserve with a boat (book via Get Your Guide).
