Algarve Regional Overview
Home » Algarve Regional Overview
Everybody knows that the Algarve weather is wonderful! It’s easy to get to, and easy to get around. The Algarve has a unique blend of old and new. You can find the ultra-modern cheek to jowl with the traditional and quaint. This is a golfers paradise – with over 25 golf courses to choose from (and more on the way), satisfaction is guaranteed. Water sports enthusiasts are spoiled for choice, as are lovers of good living – restaurants, bars, clubs abound. There are inland Nature trails, dolphin spotting, bird sanctuaries and theme parks for children of all ages.
The 160 kms of the Algarve coastline boast some of Europe’s most spectacular beaches, many holders of the prestigious Blue Flags. Choose from broad expanses of white sand, small cove beaches backed by red cliffs, beaches where cosmopolitan beach parties are a summer constant, to the pristine, deserted beaches of the Western coast. Away from the coastline with its modern resorts it’s worth exploring the inland algarve regions - the lush vegetation of the Monchique Mountains, traditional villages like Alte and Cacela Velha, the small villages that dot the course of the River Guadiana. Getting around couldn’t be easier – the main roads (the EN 125 and the A22) run east to west with feeder roads to the resorts to the south and inland to the north.
