Promenade at the beach

The Algarve / West Algarve region

The Algarve is as an area of great charm and beauty, an unspoilt haven with inviting beaches set against dramatic cliffs and rugged coastlines, interspersed with traditional fishing villages.

The historic seafaring town of Lagos lies at the heart of the Algarve, sheltered by the Ponta da Piedade and guarded by an ancient fort. From here, in the great age of discoveries, Portugal’s famous explorers set sail. Although now a lively and bustling town with an award winning marina and many shops, bars and restaurants Lagos retains the gentle atmosphere that is characteristic of Portugal and its people, providing a delightful insight into Portuguese life.

The long sandy beaches in the south western Algarve stretch for an age along the winding shores. Many of the beaches are lifeguard protected. There are many pretty beach bars where you can sit and sip sangria on the terraces. The sea is gentler on the south coast than the west, where you can experience some of the best surf in Europe or simply watch in awe as the waves crash against this dramatic coastline.

The climate of the Algarve is so mild that out door sports and activities are enjoyed all year round. The area boasts some world-class golf courses and tennis clubs. You can experience horse riding and walking amongst the natural beauty of the Algarvian hillside, and a full range of water sports are offered. For those who want to take it easy, there is a place for them too. Blue skies, a sun lounger and a good book are all you need.

The Praia da Luz / Estrela da Luz area

Luz is a traditional Portugese fishing village, the centre of which is a blug flag sandy beach bordered on one side by dramatic cliffs and on the other by a long promenade dotted with beach bars, restaurants, cafes and shops. The area is a watersports and golfers paradise with 15 championship courses within easy reach. The area is also a perfect base for exploring the coastline and the many other more westerly villages such as Burgau, Salema, Sagres and Cape Vincent to name but a few. The village is not known for its nightlife but a trip to nearby Lagos can remedy that. The village itself has a variety of shops, bars and restaurants / beach cafes. There are plenty of local restaurants offering both Portugese and International cuisine (please ask for recommendations). There are stunning cliff walks both west and east of Luz, the views from which are spectacular. There are fantastic beaches in the surrounding area too, infact, one is spoiled for choice with each one being better than the next.

As a location for families it ticks all the boxes both resort and location wise with Lagos Zoo, Waterparks and Zoo Marine within driving distance. For the golfer there is a never ending choice of courses and a different one could be played everyday. It is an ideal destination for Spa breaks with the sunny climate, yoga classes on the beach and Spa on site. The Aqua shopping centre in Portimao is nearby and The Algarve Shopping Centre in Guia is home to shops such as Zara, Mango, Massimo Dutti, Pepe, Quiksilver, Sephora and many more. Praia da Luz has something for everyone and the pace of life, spectacular weather and friendly locals makes it the ideal holiday destination only a 2.5 hour flight away from Ireland and the UK.
