BookThe Algarve / Central Algarve region
The Algarve is one of the sunniest places in Europe, with over 3,000 sunshine hours per year. The summers can be hot, but there is usually a refreshing breeze by the coast. Spring and Autumn is an ideal time for outdoor pursuits, such as golfing, biking, walking and horse riding. The winters are mild and very often sunny, but do expect a few rainy days any time between October and March.
The Atlantic coastline offers a spectacular variation of scenery from dramatic limestone cliff formations surrounding tiny coves, to long, flat, sandy beaches ideal and safe for family holidays.
Go inland, and the mountains of Monchique provide a totally different viewpoint (and on some days a totally different climate) to the coastal areas. The terrain here makes it ideal for all types of activities, from off–road biking, hiking and quad biking to walking and simply enjoying the spectacular scenery.
The western facing side of the Algarve is certainly worth a visit. The beaches are beautiful and clean and the scenery fantastic – but be prepared for more wind and colder water! A favourite spot for windsurfers.
Go east of Faro and you will find the Ria Formosa, a protected part of the coast cut off from the sea by sand–spits, forming large areas of marshlands and lagoons teeming with wildlife.
Further east beyond Tavira the coast runs off towards Spain with mile after mile of Golden flat sand.
The Albufeira / Branqueira area
The house is located just east of Albufeira close to Balaia Golf Course, Sta. Eulalia and the bustling fishing village of Olhos da Água. Balaia Golf Course is a few minutes by car down the road. For those of you who enjoy other sport then tennis is available nearby at Quinta da Balaia and horse riding at Vale Navio. The beaches at Albufeira, Sta. Eulalia, Olhos da Água and Falesia are a short drive. At many of these beaches there is a variety of water sports on offer.
There are a couple of restaurants within easy walking distance and Sta Eulalia is approximately a 15 minute walk away where there is an excellent choice of restaurants and bars. Olhos da Água, a short drive, also offers a good variety. The "Strip" which is the relatively newer part of town particuarly catering for younger people is about 20 minutes on foot. The bustling Old Town is a short taxi ride away. A bit further along the coast you will come to Vilamoura (about 15 minutes) which hosts 5 award winning golf courses. Here there is also a lively marina with lots of restaurants, bars, shops and where you can pick up many water borne day trips e.g fishing and sailing.
Many of the Algarve’s attractions are within easy reach – Zoomarine, where you can swim with the dolphins, Water parks, Krazyworld, numerous excursions, safari trips, diving, horseriding, tennis and more.
