The Algarve / Central Algarve region


This is the place where the highest sunshine hours are recorded in Europe. More than 3000 hours a year. Temperatures are hence higher than can be expected elsewhere. In midsummer daytime highs of 32 degrees are hot, low is 23 degrees. In midwinter an average high is 16 degrees and 3 or 4 days will drop to around 10 degrees.
Rain is seldom but is usual in December or January. The Romans settled here and established harbours to refurbish their boats as tides in the Mediterannean are not high enough to be able to lift the boats out of the water. There are numerous Roman remains all along the coast and also many archeological sites of interest where Holy Grail remains and Templar societies have been said to exist.
The Albufeira / Central Albufeira area
Portuguese seafood, Italian pizzas, Indian curries, Chinese spice dishes, the range is still growing as Albufeira maintains its position as favourite location in the whole of Portugal for families and singles alike for holidays.
From this central location with a rental car or using cheap local busses you can reach the lush hills of Monchique and enjoy the health water which the Romans first discovered. You can reach the wild coasts of the west where windsurfers and naturelovers home in. Or you can nip across to Spain and do some Spanish shopping,
Albufeira is only 30 minutes from any part of Algarve with the car. There are festivals each month details of which are available from the tourist office just a ten minute walk away. If you want to meet up with a whole crowd of UK people then the discos and bars of the "Strip" set between souvineer shops chip shops is the place for you, no Portuguese required here.
The regular local bus service will take you to a variety of sheltered coves and beaches, some supervised and others unsupervised but most are within reach of the excellent Portuguese newly built beach restaurants. These government regulated wooden structures have been placed to make the least impact on the natural wildlife and yet provide modern facilities such as free clean toilets and showers at cost price. Visitors have the choice of a private cove of their own or an open supervised beach with loungers and with clearly displaced timetables and prices of meals everyone will feel well catered for.
Kids will be thrilled to see the numerous theme parks ranging from Zoomarine to The Big One or Krazy World, all within 15 minutes coachdrive away.
