Why visit the Algarve?

The Climate

The Algarve has on average 300 days of sunshine, the rain here usually only comes mainly in January and February. It is a micro climate with both rain in the morning and sunshine in the afternoon. In winter it has average temperatures of 15 degrees Celsius.

The Natural Beauty

The Algarve is 160 km long, bathed by the Atlantic Ocean, with beaches of unparalleled, venerable beauty!
Therefore, we can find beaches in almost every county in the Algarve, however we can also find mountains in their natural state, with prominent trees, abundant vegetation, and breathtaking views.

Ease of mobility

The Algarve has in recent years become an expert in hospitality! We have not only the national road 125 which crosses the 16 concelhos , but also the A22, the motorway which connects all the concelhos.

Driving in the Algarve is therefore almost always an easy task. It is not common to have a great affluence of traffic, only August registers a significant increase, which is due to the fact that it is the season of greatest demand in this region.

The bus and train network has several connections a day to various cities and towns in the Algarve, as well as several bus stops at beaches. Finally, if you are without a car once you want to get to a specific place and none of the public transport networks have the answer for you! We have taxis, or Uber!

The price

The time is coming to start preparing your summer holidays, if you have not included the Algarve, no doubt you are still in time. One question: beach or mountain? Answer, surprisingly around here we have both!

The fantastic part is the list of the cheapest destinations in Europe and guess what!

Bulgaria’s Sunny Beach has won first place in the ranking, according to the barometer prepared by financial services portal Post Office. In second place comes Marmaris, in Turkey, and in third the Algarve. In the top ten there are also names like Crete, in Greece, or Pafos, in Cyprus.

The study evaluated nine small common expenses that a trip to the beach implies. From a coffee to a glass of beer, a glass of wine, a bottle of water, sunscreen, insect repellent and meals for two. Ticket prices and accommodation costs are left out.

Finally, so the Algarve appears as one of the 3 cheapest beach destinations in Europe.
