Summer’s here! Sun, sand, the sea disappearing into the distance, a deep blue sky and lots of pleasant moments... you’ll find everything you need to enjoy some great holidays in the Alentejo and the Algarve.
What type of beaches do you prefer? An endless expanse of sand perfect for long walks, a private bay all to yourself, small pools amongst the rocks or lots of good waves for diving and surfing... you just have to decide. You’ll find them all here. Did you know that the Costa Vicentina and South-West Alentejo Natural Park has the best preserved coastline in Europe?
Do you enjoy combining being on the beach with sport and relaxation? The Algarve is just the place for this. After a round of golf played on one of the courses set amidst breathtaking landscapes, give yourself up to the pleasures of a relaxing spa therapy.
Or perhaps you might prefer one of the inland beaches. Discover the World Heritage city of Évora, visit the villages of the Alentejo and the great lake formed by the Alqueva dam or hover over the countryside in a hot-air balloon – these are just a few suggestions for some truly unforgettable days.
The good weather that you’re bound to find in Portugal encourages you to make the most of the warm summer evenings. After a stroll or a day at the beach, enjoy a good dinner and then discover all the life and entertainment in the streets. Non-stop fun! |
