Origin of the name Tavira
The city of Tavira, once during the Roman empire a secondary passing place of the important road between Balsa and Baesuris.
The name itself comes from Moorish influences, initially called Tabira (“the hidden”), although there are many variations according to popular History: Tabira, Tavila, Talabriga (You will find some restaurants and bars with these names there).
