The Algarve / Central Algarve region


The climate is one of the healthiest and most pleasant in the world, comparable with California.
There is sufficient seasonal variation to make the weather anything but boring, but winters are never too cold and the summers never too hot. The skies are predominantly blue all year round.
The Algarve has managed to retain its old world charm and traditional values even although it is an integral part of an ambitious, forward-looking nation, and tourism is its major economic activity. It is both a place to relax and do little or, if you prefer it, indulge your every active recreational interest, much of it outdoors in the clean, fresh air. The environment is much less spoilt than in other European countries. Growing popular awareness, backed by EU directives incorporated into Portuguese law, should ensure that it stays that way. The region is best known for its spectacular coastline, including scores of beautiful beaches, in the hinterland you will find vineyards, olive, almond, carob and fig trees, rising to rolling hills and the plains of the province of Alentejo beyond.
The Armacao de Pera area
Besides all the local water sporting activities, such as snorkelling, sailing, surfing, deep sea fishing and others, Algarve's beaches are perfect for jogging or even for a calm and quiet walk. Cycling through out the region is a wonderful relaxing way to see the Algarve. Fantastic Castles and Forts almost everywhere! Breathtaking cliffs overlooking the Atlantic Ocean with hidden creeks. Peaceful countryside in the mountains still untouched by developers.
