The Algarve is Portugal’s main tourist destination, renowned for its mild climate, the beauty of its landscape and beaches, the friendliness of its people, its quaint old world charm and its laid back lifestyle.
It is also famed for its magnificent championship golf courses, high quality leisure resorts and sophisticated hotels. Served by Faro International Airport, the region is within comfortable flying time from most major European cities.
The Algarve is blessed by an average of no fewer than 3000 hours of sunshine each year (more than any other European holiday destination) so is ideal for all-the-year round sports such as tennis, horse-riding, deep-sea fishing, sailing, windsurfing, snorkeling, microlite flying and there is avibrant night life. It is therefore a good destination for short or long breaks or conferences.
