The 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. 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.
Albufeira / Sesmarias Albufeira area
In the immediate area, you have a fantastic choice of beaches and coves. Castelo Beach is the nearest, being approximately a 10 minute walk, with Evaristo being a little further. Gale, a beautiful long sandy beach stretching a few kilometres is about 20 minutes on foot, or just a few minutes by car - this is a fantastic spot to watch the breathtaking sunsets, it is good for swimming and for the energetic a good beach walk. The rest are no more than a 5 minute drive – to name a few, São Rafãel, Lourenço and Coelha. There are many coves scattered along this part of the coast, some only accessible by foot.
Within easy walking distance there is a choice of good restaurants ranging from traditional Portuguese to Indian and Chinese.
There is a crazy golf course less than a 5 minute walk away, where you will also find a bar/restaurant, swimming pool and large screens to watch sport, soaps, etc. so something to amuse the whole family.
Less than 10 minutes by car is Albufeira Old Town which has a never-ending choice of restaurants and bars, a beautiful long sandy beach, live music venues, the Square which in the summer months hosts a lot of traditional entertainment, an abundance of shops and altogether a great atmosphere. It offers something for both young and old. Just a bit further on and you will come to the "Strip" where you can party until the early hours of the morning.
For the golfers in your party Salgados (an 18 hole links course) is a few minutes drive. Many others, such as the 5 award winning courses of Vilamoura, Vale de Milho, Gramacho and Penina, are no more than a 30 minute drive. In addition, the new course designed by Nick Faldo, Amendoeira is about 15 minutes.
Many water parks are within easy reach - Aqualand, Zoomarine (where you can swim with the Dolphins), Slide and Splash, Aqua Show, Atlantic Park. If you haven't got a car, then buses will pick you up from a point a few minutes walk from the house.
There are numerous outdoor activities available an easy car ride away - water sports, tennis, horse riding, biking and much more. For those of you who like walking then there are cliff top walks and beach walks.
How to get there
Faro is the nearest airport - 40km and the journey from the airport to the villa takes about 40 minutes. Many airlines fly to Faro e.g. Monarch, Easyjet, Ryanair, British Airways, Jet2, Flythomascook, Aer Lingus, Flybe, BMI, Flygloespan. Take a look at www.skyscanner.net. This compares all prices and takes away the need to initially log on to separate sites individually to see which airline is flying and when.
