The Estação Arqueológica Romana da Praia da Luz is an archaeological site located on the Algarve coast, showcasing the remains of a Roman villa and fish-salting tanks. It provides insight into Roman life and industry in southern Portugal nearly two thousand years ago.
Visitors can explore the foundations of Roman structures, including fish-salting tanks (cetariae), parts of a villa, mosaic fragments, and evidence of daily Roman activities. Informational displays help interpret the site’s history and significance.
The Estação Arqueológica Romana da Praia da Luz is historically significant because it illustrates the role of the Algarve in the Roman Empire’s trade network. The preserved salting tanks reveal the region’s importance in producing fish sauces and salted fish, which were exported across the Mediterranean.
