Perfect for couples and families alike, Portugal’s southernmost region boasts some of Europe’s best beaches, fantastic leisure facilities, stylish accommodation and delicious cuisine. With so much to offer visitors, it’s little wonder that the Algarve is one of Europe’s most popular holiday destinations.
Renowned resort towns Albufeira, Lagos, Praia da Rocha and Vilamoura draw visitors in with their stunning stretches of sand, lively streets and countless activities. Spectacular clifftop views and a charming old town add to the appeal in Albufeira, whilst glitz and glamour prevails in Vilamoura. All along the coast secluded coves, bays backed by dramatic cliffs and family-friendly swathes of sand tempt visitors to their shores. Venture away from the stunning coastline and be rewarded with quaint towns and villages, cobbled streets and historical gems, topped off with authentic Portuguese culture.
The region’s blissful climate, boasting over 3000 glorious hours of sunshine a year, and amazing scenery makes it ideal for action outdoors - thrilling watersports, world-class golf, tennis and horse-riding are all on offer, promising experiences to remember. The cuisine in the Algarve is equally unforgettable, indeed, the region is home to more Michelin-starred restaurants than any other part of the country, but whether it’s high-end cuisine or laidback light bites, mouthwatering flavours are sure to be the perfect accompaniment to delicious local wine and good-looking surrounds.
