Portugal
On the Iberian Peninsula, Portugal has long been a popular European holiday destination, especially the Algarve on Portugal's southernmost coast. The Algarve has a warm sunny climate all year.
The Algarve stretches for over 150 miles and is lush with orange, lemon and almond trees and dotted with shimmering Moorish villages. Its most popular resort town is Albufeira with its picturesque location and wide sandy beaches. A few miles inland from Albufeira you will find yourself in glorious countryside where you can go horse riding and really get away from it all; you will find it totally unspoilt and very relaxing.
The Algarve is well known for its top class golf courses, beautiful beaches, great shopping and a wide variety of bars and restaurants to suit all tastes.
Beyond the small towns, fishing villages, lively resorts, golf courses are forest-covered mountains, fresh with the scent of pine and eucalyptus.
The Algarve promises a unique experience.
The island of Madeira is lapped by the waters of the gulf stream with warm comfortable summers and mild winters that make it an enchanting holiday destination all year round.
Both traditional Portuguese culture and the overwhelming beauty of these natural resources await you at 310 miles from the African coast and 620 miles from the European continent.
Madeira offers its visitors an endless selection of things to see and do. Both the lovers of daytime outings and those who prefer nightlife will be spoilt for choice: the city offers a wide variety of museums and monuments, parks and gardens, and international shows, unique moments of leisure and night-time entertainment. Coming to Madeira means trying its many culinary delights and visiting all the attractions and places that make it so special. |
