This is an important little town that should be preserved for Portuguese posterity! Once lost, historic gems like Olhao can never be recreated....

We have stayed in the old centre of Olhao and loved its unique character. Please do not destroy it like so much of the south coast of Pirtugal has been

Protect the charm of Olhao. The historical old town cannot be replaced - preserve for the future.

Olhao is a beautiful charming place and should not be redeveloped. It is because of what its like now that so many people visit

I´ve been to Olhao twice during the last two years. I found this beautiful town with its wonderful atmosphere by chance in 2014 and spent wonderful holidays with my kids in Olhao. And I knew immediately , that I had to come there again. So I spent another week in Olhao this year. What were my reasons to return to Olhao? The very special atmosphere of old buildings, small lanes, the charme of forgotten centuries, that you can find there and the lack of huge Hotel-Complexes. Keep the individuality of your beautiful town, don´t make the same mistakes other cities did, when they sacrificed their history and charakter to Tourism. Olhao is uncomparable and unique. And that´s what makes it so lovable. And that was and will be my reason to return...

Olhao is a beautiful little city and should not be 'renewed' (ruined!).

Please this town belongs to world heritage. So look after it how it looks now after surviving all those centuries. Cultural Tourism is the future, so keep it like it is!!! Preserve it. André Groeneveld, curator Zuiderzeemuseum the Netherlands

I visited my aunt who lives in Olhao in July from Scotland and had a wonderful time. I would be strongly against destroying the historic centre.

Olhao is one of the few remaining gems of the Algarve, attracting visitors for its authentich charm, and it would be a pity if it became just another soulless resort
