The Algarve / Central Algarve region
The Algarve stretches across the whole of southern Portugal, occupied by the Moors for 600 years its name derived from the Arabic El-Gharb meaning "west". The Algarve enjoys an idyllic dry climate, created in part by its geography, being surrounded by hills, the sea and the river Guadiana. Located on the southern tip of Europe with the vast ocean of the Atlantic as its southern and western border, this enviable position gives this region possibly the most unpolluted climate in the European continent it is therefore no surprise that the Algarve has become a top spot for holiday homes particularly within the Central Algarve. However unlike many other popular holiday destinations, the Algarve has managed to retain much of its original charm and attraction.
East of Faro the coast is known as the leeward shore. The area stretching eastwards to the Spanish border forms an unusual lagoon landscape closed by sandy islets. A large part of the coastline has been declared a protected area, namely the Ria Formosa Natural Park. The windward shore is the Algarve's most famous stretch of coast with its ochre - coloured cliffs, coves and grottoes, spectacular rock formations divide the beaches, creating quaint private paradises. Many of the beaches are bordered by beautiful sand cliffs, which merge with pine trees, creating a feast of nature that is unmatched anywhere else.
The interior of the Algarve is still relatively unknown. The flower-decked, whitewashed villages have managed to preserve their traditional appearance with typical Arabic chimneys which are still copied in new build villas today. Traditional Algarve handicrafts are an important industry for the local population and the year-round scents alone are worth the visit, with eucalyptus, pine, lavender and rock-rose all growing here in abundance.
The Algarve also offers numerous recreational activities, including: world class golf courses, tennis courts, sailing, horse riding, and water sports, world class night life, including discos, clubs, and casinos and last but not least a wealth of restaurants where one can choose from traditional Algarvean fare to international cuisine.
Vale do Lobo / Quinta do Lago area
Some of the best and most beautiful beaches in the entire world are to be found in the Algarve There are about 100 sandy attractive beaches along the two hundred kilometres of Algarve coastline, with the majority having gained due recognition in the form of the EU "Blue Flag" for quality standards. Washed by the Atlantic Ocean and due to the maritime shelf and water currents the sea temperature can often be surprisingly warm even in some of the winter months. The Algarve coastline offers such distinctly differing landscapes that it is never difficult to find beaches with characteristics to suit all the tastes. The Costa Vicentina, in the western region of the Algarve is popular with surfers and those who enjoy nature at its most untamed. Mostly made up of steep, imposing cliffs, cut back to form shell-shaped sandy coves, the coastline is rich in wildlife with eagles and falcons soaring across these skies.
The Barlavento coast, the western stretch of the Algarve, is renowned for its golden cliffs with all their extravagant shapes providing the perfect backdrop to dreamlike beaches. Further enriching this environment are the many caves and rock formations cut out of the cliffs by the sea.
