Fun in the Sun in the Algarve
The
Algarve has long been known for its gloriously hot summers and
bikini-friendly beaches, and as such it's an enormously popular holiday
destination that routinely brings happy holidaymakers back to its
sun-drenched shores year after year.
If
you're after an Algarve holiday, you'll find a wonderful range of
holiday experiences to suit virtually every taste and budget imaginable.
The Algarve is classic sun, sea and sand territory, so you'll certainly
find plenty of family-friendly resorts here. For a bustling vibe and
non-stop action, Albufeira is a lively Portuguese town on the Algarve
coastline that serves up stacks of golden beaches and watersports.
There's plenty to do during the day, whether you love kicking back or
going wild on the waves, and by night this popular town really hots up
with lashings of bars, pubs and clubs that will keep you going until the
early hours.
For
something a little more low-key, the Algarve is home to plenty of other
resorts like Carvoeiro, which is ideal for taking it easy. Based around
a stunning bay with a sheltered stretch of sand, and honey-coloured
cliffs that tumble down to the sparkling blue sea, this is a lovely
little town with bags of character and the perfect tonic for a relaxing
sun-drenched escape.
An
Algarve holiday is typically spent around the beach, but for those days
when you can bear to tear yourself away from the sands, you'll find
plenty of other activities to keep all ages entertained. Golf is a
popular sport here, and Portugal's south coast is peppered with nine,
eighteen and 27-hole courses of varying levels - perfect for everyone
from putters to pros.
Whatever
type of Algarve holiday you're looking for, you'll find a fantastic
range of escapes through package holiday tour operators like Thomas Cook.
Take a look and see for yourself what kind of holiday experience you
could have on the Portuguese coast - one thing's for sure, you're bound
to have stacks of fun in the sun!
