Region - Discover the Algarve!
Get acquainted with the most famous tourist spots in Portugal and one of the most sought after destinations in all of Western Europe.
The Algarve has a spectacular coastline stretching over 150 km - cliffs, dunes and golden beaches are joined by the waters of the Atlantic ocean, and the beautiful natural landscapes of the mountainous regions are found inland.
With a typical Mediterranean climate this is the ideal place to spend a day relaxing on the beach or being at one with nature walking along the coastal paths or through the national parks. The wide variety of activities available make this a desirable destination for all tastes and ages.
If you enjoy the sea, nature, sport, heritage, culture and people, as well as a lively nightlife, the Algarve is a holiday destination not to be missed.
The contrast between the sea and mountainous areas offer some pleasant experiences in terms of gastronomy. The odours and flavours of the traditional Algarvian cuisine come from the fresh ingredients produced in the region and knowledge acquired over time in the art of preparing those ingredients.

The specialties like the stews, açordas and cataplanas are a must have if you like fish and seafood. From the orchards and green pastures of the mountains come the ingredients for many meat dishes: the chicken 'cerejada', the stews and other game dishes are a true delight for meat lovers.
Finally, the pearl of the Algarve gastronomy: the sweets. Almonds, sugar, honey, eggs and figs are the basic ingredients. Be sure to taste Don Rodrigo, Morgado with almond or stuffed figs.
