THE ALGARVE

Land of sun and sea, the Algarve proves time after time that it possesses the perfect natural and climatic conditions to confirm itself as an excellent holiday destination in which to hold a wide range of entertainment events. From music and film festivals, to gastronomy and handicrafts, and not forgetting sport, the Algarve offers a calendar packed with great events throughout the year, which acts as a strong complement to the "Sun and Sand" product, and allows the region's tourist attractions to diversify and thus fight the seasonality that is still felt in this region. This is a paradise for open air sports, which take advantage of the perfect climatic conditions enjoyed by the region all year. The Portuguese Algarve Open, Portugal's major golfing event in the official calendar of the European Tour, also takes place during April.

 

The Algarve is synonymous with golf, with a remarkable collection of first class championship courses and amazing resorts strung along the sun-kissed coastline. Faro, well serviced from most major airports, is the starting point for your Algarve golf holiday, and is within an hour of almost all the most attractive destinations.

The brightest star on the Algarve is Vilamoura, a delightful harbour town that has been transformed into a comprehensive golf complex. Many of our recommended hotels are at the edge of the marina, and we can guarantee complimentary transfers to the Vilamoura golf courses. The Victoria and Old are among Europe’s best, and are supported by the Millennium, Laguna, Pinhal, plus Vila Sol.

Surrounding Vilamoura is a host revered golfing names – Quinta Do Lago, San Lorenzo and Vale Do Lobo are the cream of the crop along this remarkable golfing paradise. Alternatives to Vilamoura include Tavira to the east, whose highlight is the amazing Nicklaus-designed Monte Rei, while to the west, the star of the show is Penina, one of Europe’s favourite golf resorts.
