ALGARVE

The Algarve is the southernmost region of Portugal and is Portugal's most popular tourist region.

Algarve

Well known for glorious year round sunshine and fantastic beaches, The Algarve offers a plentiful supply of good hotels, charming resorts, first-class golf courses and unlimited choice of food.

With its many championship golf courses, the Algarve has been a magnet to many golfers for almost three decades. The crystal clear waters and the clear blue skies contrast with the white-washed walls of the buildings in the Algarve's old towns making it a dream holiday destination. The Algarve's capital and largest city, Faro is home to the Algarve�s main airport and with the onset of cheaper flights, a weekend break here is not out of the question.

The most dramatic coastline and the least crowded beaches can be found in Western Algarve, the coast from Portimao to Cabo Sao Vicente is the favourite of those who know the Algarve best. Many of the villages here have retained their character and high-rise hotels are rarer than in other areas of the Algarve.

Popular with water sports enthusiasts the Algarve boasts all the water sports imaginable in great supply. Alternatively, for the less energetic, the picturesque marinas of Vilamoura and Lagos deserve special mention.
