Airfield that was once certified for ultra-lights, closed in 2010 due to destruction of the runway, by the landowner's decision. The 'Aeroclube de Tavira' expected to have a new runway by the end of the same year in a new location, but such hopes never materialized unfortunately. The old hangar of the airfield is still clearly visible, and if you use the 'historic imagery' function in Google Earth and go back to a date prior to 2010, you'll see the runway very clearly as it once was.
