It is well known for its wonderful stretches of long sandy beaches and its breath taking rugged cliff top walks. Wether driving east or west of Faro you will not be disappointed with the lovely Portuguese towns you will find. From Tavira in the East right down to Cape de Vincent on the rugged west coast. Here you can see where Vasco De Gamma set sail to discover the new world. The West coast offers some of the best surfing conditions in Europe.

Through out the countryside are many small farms and local fishing which provides the local restaurants with local produce where you will be able to enjoy wonderful food and wine.
One of the many outstanding features of the Algrave are its stunning golden beaches which stretch for miles in parts, nothing beats a day of relaxing on the beach enjoying the sunshine and sampling the wonderful fresh Portuguese food and wine.
