Algarve

Amazing beaches of golden sand, rocky coves and rugged cliffs, fascinating historic discoveries, a superb selection of golf courses and an excellent choice of cheap accommodation and deluxe hotels, continue to entice holiday makers to Portugal, either in the Algarve, located in the southern region of Portugal or to the Lisbon area on the coast in central Portugal. Bordering Spain to the east and the Atlantic to the south and west, the Algarve is a short flight of about 2 1/2 hours from the UK to Faro Airport.
