The Algarve, Portugal’s southern shore is one hundred miles of stunning coastline, its numerous beaches washed every day by the clean Atlantic Ocean, earning this beautiful region a deserved reputation as one of the world’s finest shores. Jagged sandstone cliffs tower above golden sandy beaches or form secluded rocky creeks and intimate sandy coves for you to discover. Along the Algarve coast, pretty whitewashed houses draped in bright bougainvillea cling to the rugged cliff tops, whilst inland, tiny Algarve villages are surrounded by countryside rich in natural flora.

Travel from the airport to the resorts is easy these days along the coast toll highway, Vale do Lobo is under 30 minutes, Albufeira around 40 minutes and Carvoeiro less than an hour.
