The Algarve is one of the most popular tourist and second home destinations in Europe, attracting over 7 million foreign visitors each year. With its spectacular sandy beaches, natural landscapes, historic heritage and delicious cuisine, the Algarve has something for everyone.
Spanning over 5,400 km sq, this is the southernmost region of mainland Portugal and extends just south of the Tagus valley to the southern coast of the Iberian Peninsula. The length of the coastline is approximately 155 km and is notable for its picturesque limestone caves.
Whilst the Algarve is primarily known for its stunning coastline, the relatively undeveloped inland region offers some outstanding hidden gems, a highlight being the Serra de Monchique, the highest mountain range in the south, with its cork and chestnut woods, remote villages and beautiful old spa in Caldes de Monchique.
The region is famous for its pottery and ceramics, particularly hand-painted pottery and azulejos (tiles).
The Algarve boasts a fantastic Mediterranean climate with temperatures reaching almost 40 degrees Celsius in the summer months. The winters are mild with the temperature rarely falling below zero.
