Portugal


General


Despite being best-known as a golfer’s paradise, Portugal actually offers something for everyone. While there are of course fairways aplenty, there are also endless miles of golden beaches, the clear blue waters of the Atlantic and a verdant, rugged landscape that is alive with both spendid architecture and picturesque, tumbledown villages.
Lisbon, a magnificent capital city since 1255, nestles along the banks of the River Tagus. The fortress which was the original city is now encircled by medieval streets and picturesque houses whose façades are adorned with lovely ceramic tiles. Yet beyond the city and the golf courses, you will also find deserted beaches, quiet coastal walks, pretty fishing villages and harbours of pure charm. Inland, however, you will find fairytale castles, towering mountains and lush, green forests.
Portugal really is a land of contrasts, with everything you could need to meet your every mood, including hours and hours of gorgeous sunshine.



Places to Visit


Rio Formosa National Park
Natural splendour and endless, quiet beaches on the sandbank islands close to Faro and our Quarteira site.
Nazare
Tradionally, a fishing town, you’ll still find the best of Portugal’s fish and shellfish dishes served here, in what is now a busy summer resort.
Silves The remnants of many different cultures overlap in this splendidly historic town. The castle and walls are of Arab origin, the Gothic Cathedral stands on the site of an ancient mosque and the 12th century bridge stands on the site of the original Roman bridge.
Lagos If you are looking for something a little more arty and bohemian, why not head for Lagos at the western end of the Algarve. Here you will find not just the arty crowd, but also the local jet-set in their natural habitat. It’s a splendid place to find a pavement café and just watch the world go by.



Family Attractions


Surfing at Praia do Amado
Whether you like to get out there amongst the breakers or simply sit and watch, you will find some of the world’s best surfers at Praia do Amado, in Aljezur, considered to be one of the best surfing beaches in Portugal.
Golf in the Algarve
Portugal and the Algarve in particular have numerous quality golf courses, making it a great destination for a short golfing trip or a round as part of your holiday.
