The Algarve / Central Algarve region
Portugal's Algarve region has a sunny climate with a pleasant breeze making it one of the most sought after resorts in Europe.It has miles of golden sandy beaches.
Some of the world's best golf courses are within a 20 minute drive. There are several water parks as well as many wtaer sports such as sailing & water skiing, you can even swim with the dolphins - an amazing experience! There is fishing, horse back riding for the cultural old castles and Roman ruins. There is something to satisfy everyone in the family.
The old town of Albufeira & the cosmopolitan marina of Vilamoura are a short drive away. The city of Faro is a bit further, but well worth the drive for the shopping, restaurants & bars. We also like the plaza at Vale do Lobo, where there is nightly entertainment - great for keeping the kids entertained at the table whilst we all eat!
For nature lovers the orange groves flower in the winter, filling the air with a wonderful fragance. In January the almond trees bloom giving a beautiful white appearance along the road.
It really is an all year round destiantion for a short break or full holiday.

The true test of any golf course is measured by requiring a player’s ability to control shot length and direction. This 9-hole par-3 course optimises these demands. With holes ranging from 58 metres to 160 metres, the ability to hit crisp approach shots and to pitch and putt well, are the secrets of good scoring on this very attractive and manicured course.
