Tour Description
Albufeira is internationally renowned for its gold sandy beaches and turquoise blue waters, sheltered by rocky ochre cliffs.
The scenery attracts a wealth of visitors that love to sunbathe during the day. When the sun sets, the party begins with beautiful people flocking to enjoy the restaurants, bars, terraces, and the epic Albufeira’s nightlife.
Round up your days of leisure and relaxation on a terrace overlooking the ocean, with a fresh drink on your hand, to celebrate the good life!
The shoreline of Albufeira is very inviting for water sports, from windsurfing, diving, or sailing. A boat tour around the caves is a wonderful opportunity for a different day, with visits to secluded beaches only accessible by sea.
Albufeira is perfect not only for people yearning for sun and rest. Many golf courses stretch almost to the sea, and all sorts of fun activities are available, like horse riding under the shade of pine trees.
Being a popular resort, Albufeira teems with urban boutiques and arts and crafts shops, where you can still find authenticity in the work of local artisans. Those objects made of clay, palm leaves, copper, and lace, follow centuries’ old traditions.
The charm of Albufeira doesn’t end here. In the fertile green countryside lies a fragrant landscape dotted with almond, fig, orange, and pine trees.
The lacey typical chimneys, a heritage of Moorish architecture, stand out against the red of tiled roofs and the blue skies.
Sleepy whitewashed villages invite you to experience a way of life connected to nature, adding another dimension to your holidays in the Algarve.
Last, but certainly not least, surrender yourself to the excellent Portuguese food and wines. From the fresh fish and shellfish to the sweet local delicacies of almonds, honey, and figs, you will be spoilt for choice!
