Climate

Portugal Climate

With the sun shining for more than 3,000 hours a year, the mild climate offers visitors the opportunity to enjoy outdoor activities in the mild winter months with the hotter, dry summers encouraging activities close to water.


Lifestyle

The Algarve

Life in the Algarve moves at a slower pace than in northern European countries. With the opportunity to cook, eat and spend most of your waking hours outside it also feels a lot healthier.


Infrastructure

Portugal Airport

Major infrastructure investments in the Algarve over the last few years now means that the region can compete with most of its northern European counterparts. Transport links are up-to-date with Faro international airport offering access to all major European cities, throughout the year, and the motorway network allowing access to the rest of Portugal and Spain.


The people

Algarve People

The Portuguese are generally polite and gracious, being family-minded and usually of a traditional nature.


The country

Portugal

Portugal has been fought over since prehistoric times, becoming a country as we know it in the 8th century. The Portuguese were great explorers and pioneered maritime exploration, particularly in the Age of Discovery, monopolising the spice trade and extending its empire across the world. When Macau was handed back to China in 1999 it marked the end of the longest colonial empire in the world but, still today, Portugal’s cultural and architectural influence can be seen around the globe.
