The Algarve
Trip Planning & Itineraries
It's holiday heaven in the Algarve -- a role created by climate, geography, and personality, with year-round sunshine, long beaches, natural bays, dramatic cliffs and warm seas. Between Faro and Lagos it's all apartment blocks, whitewashed villas and golf courses, providing hassle-free holiday facilities whose rowdier relatives live on the Spanish costas (coastal regions).

The inscription over the doorway to the bone chapel at Nossa Denhora do Carmo reads, 'Stop here and think of the fate that will befall you.' This quote is a fitting theme for a day spent looking at buildings from the past and contemplating the timelessness of nature's beauty.
Suggested Itineraries: The Algarve
Lagos is the good-looking carnival queen of the main resorts. Praia da Rocha has the best beach on the coast a golden, rose-tinted jewel and an apartment-block magnet, with sophistication lurking amid the concrete. Albufeira, with a pretty town center, is also packed with facilities, but more British- and German-centric.
Out at the Algarve's edges, it's a different story. Sagres in the southwest is smaller and sweeter. North of here, the wild, west-facing shores have small, appealing resorts and offer Portugals best surfing.
