This region of Portugal was popularised by the British in the 60s and a summer holiday to The Algarve caters to tourists from all over Europe. Tourism is a well practiced industry and you can holiday in large villa/apartment complexes, hotels or private villas with resorts ranging from tiny villages to small towns. Pretty Albufeira is popular because of its central location, cobbled old town and buzzing nightlife. Sophisticated Vilamoura attracts boat lovers with life being centred around a well developed Marina and Lagos has 2000 years of history around the still standing fortifications. An Algarve summer holiday is the perfect destination for any age.

Whether you are searching out some terracotta pottery, taking a speedboat to some hidden caves, paying a reverent visit to a quaint old church, soaking up the sun on a glorious beach, playing a round of golf or even looking for a British estate agent, a summer holiday to The Algarve is a Portuguese profusion of delights.
