The Algarve beams with historic charm; there are a number of impressive ancient landmarks to admire here, including the Sé Cathedral in Faro and Silves Castle. You can get a feel of the city’s rich past by browsing old fishing markets, admiring Moor homes and visiting museums. The open-air Cerro da Vila museum is particularly worth visiting, which allows you to walk along the ruins of a Roman villa.
The Algarve’s 100+ beaches provide an abundance of leisure opportunities including surfing, jet skiing, kayaking, banana boat rides, and kayaking, to name a few – and if you’d prefer to sit back and sunbathe, then you’ll still be in the right place. Other outdoor adventures you can enjoy here include mountain climbing, golf, camping, hiking, kitesurfing, and snorkelling. There’s something fun for everyone in the Algarve.
