Faro Shopping: Where to Shop - Faro, Portugal, PT
Many tourists holidaying here also favour the shopping available at the city's Forum Algarve, which is located in the direction of Faro Airport and contains a good selection of shops and designer clothing.

The majority of the stores here are under cover and spread out on two floors, staying open each day until 19:00 (or as late as midnight during the peak season).

Those shopping at Faro's ever-popular Forum Algarve will find a large hypermarket (Jumbo) on the lower storey, and an extensive food court upstairs, with self-service style buffet eateries.

Apart from the Jumbo hypermarkets, most of the stores here are on the small side, although do stock plenty of affordable goods. The Forum Algarve features a large underground parking area, although be warned - it gets very busy at the weekends.
