This hot land, flavoured by the sea, does not disappoint. Whatever you are looking for is here... Magnificent wide sandy beaches or little coves enclosed by rocky outcrops, practically deserted, where you can for a while, feel a sense of peace and one ness with your surroundings. Green field countryside, stretching away in to the distance. Mountains on the horizon, protecting this hide away from northern winds. Cosmopolitan cities or small villages lost in time where doors remain open, inviting visitors, to come in and take refreshment on a summer's afternoon. There are memories and monuments of the many peoples who have called this land home: The Phoenicians, the Greeks, the Romans, the Moors and finally the Portuguese who express their love and knowledge in the pavements, bridges, forts, castles, churches and chapels that are all different, all magnificent and all yours to discover and explore. And if, during your day you need to burn off some calories, harness your energies and pick out your favourite sport. In the Algarve you can do everything, from golf to tennis, from horse riding to bowling, sports in the water or in the air, there is everything... And then discover the nightlife. Have a sit in a café / coffee bar / or out on a terrace and watch the world go by, enjoy the Algarve's rich gastronomy, savour the eggs and almond sweets, have a drink on a bar from where you can view the orange sunset as it slips into the sea. And if you want finish off your night in grand style, choose from a wide range of international shows or go dancing in a fashionable disco, crossing paths with the international jet set. |
