About Algarve

The Algarve, Portugal’s south-facing Atlantic coastline, is one of the most popular European holiday destinations, boasting stunning sandy beaches, secret coves, pretty harbours and world-class golf courses. Stretching from Cape St. Vincent to Vila Real de Santo Antonio, the Algarve coastline is punctuated by holiday villas and beachfront apartments, while further inland, rich countryside and unspoilt fishing villages further enhance the beauty of this Portuguese hotspot.

Albufeira is one of the main holiday resorts in the Algarve. The region enjoys a favourable year-round climate, rendering it a popular destination across the seasons. People of all ages visit Albufeira which caters for a wide range of holiday tastes, so that retired couples, fun-loving singles and young families all frequent this Portuguese paradise.

Albufeira is a traditional fishing village which has developed over the years as the tourism industry has blossomed in the area. This enchanting location is a harmonious combination of old and new, so that holidaymakers can see historical monuments such as the Church of Sao Sebastiao, as well as sampling the modern bars, cafes and restaurants.

Perhaps the most alluring characteristic of this holiday hotspot is the inherent beauty of both the coastline and the contrasting interior landscape. While the former is famous for sugar-soft, sandy beaches lapped by azure waters, the latter is infused with rustic charm as afforded by the lush greenery and the orange, fig and pine trees.

The Algarve also includes the attractive city of Faro; Quinta do Lago, with its sweeping dunes and the Rio Formosa lagoon; Vale do Lobo, which boasts excellent golf facilities; Vilamoura, with its attractive marina; and the pretty, historic region of Lagos with its bustling atmosphere and famous fish market.

So, whether you enjoy a round of golf on one of the Algarve’s many top courses, relaxing on a sundrenched beach, discovering the region’s rich history, or experiencing the vibrant nightlife, this holiday hotspot has something for everyone.
