Pollen allergies occur when the body's immune system reacts to pollen from trees, grasses, and weeds. In Faro, Portugal, pollen seasons vary by plant type.

Trees like olive, cypress, and pine release pollen from February to April. Grasses pollinate from May to July, causing symptoms like itchy eyes, runny nose, and sneezing.

Weeds like ragweed and nettle pollinate from August to October, triggering allergy symptoms. Warmer weather and wind carry pollen, making symptoms worse.

Faro's coastal location and mild winters contribute to a longer pollen season. Understanding pollen seasons helps people with allergies prepare and take steps to reduce exposure.
