What does Algarve have to offer?
The Algarve’s coastline is riddled with sandy beaches, rocky coves, and picturesque overlooks. Today, small fishing villages have developed into popular resorts that cater to every taste. However, traditional small village charm has not been eradicated; you’ll find an authentic ambiance is still alive in the bustling streets of the Algarve’s old towns. Portuguese hospitality and fun-loving attitude is evident in all the restaurants and bars of the Algarve and there is plenty of exciting clubs and entertainment to satisfy all your nightlife needs.
Dining in the Algarve
Expect fresh fish, meats, delicious local dishes, and excellent value for money. Inexpensive local wine is delicious and a welcome complement to any meal. Relax and enjoy a leisurely lunch after the heat of the day. From Chicken piri-piri to delicious locally sourced lobster you will be spoiled for choice and quality.
Activities
Recent developments have brought golf to the Algarve in a big way. The Algarve is known for having world class golf courses offering a variety of terrain. Sunshine and natural beauty make golfing one of the Algarve’s top attractions.
On the coast, you’ll have no trouble getting involved with a variety of watersports from sailing to scuba diving as most resorts in the Algarve are fully equipped with all the lastest watersport facilities.
Take a day trip and head inland to visit traditional villages or a hike through Portugal’s lush countryside; there is so much to explore.
Popular Algarve destinations
The southern coast of the Algarve stretches 155km from Sagres to Villa Real de Santo Antonio. Along the coast there are over 100 sandy beaches and though the Atlantic ocean is notoriously cold, due to warm Mediterranean currents and the shallow depth of the maritime shelf, the waters of the Algarve are surprisingly warm. The region overrun by white almond blossom, wild orchids in February and by March the scent of orange blossom fills the air. Throughout the summer various fruits such as cherries, melons, grapes, strawberries, and oranges are harvested throughout the region. So expect cocktails and juices to taste particularly fresh during the summer months.
Historic Faro, laidback Lagos, quaint Burgau, trendy Vilamoura, charming Alburfeira, attractive Tavira,- with the current number of unique resorts you'll be spoiled for choice.
