The Eastern Algarve is said to have some of the best beaches in Europe, gems that are havens of peace, undiscovered and free of crowds, that makes them attractive to ecologists and nature lovers. It has a mild Mediterranean climate all year round. Such is the beauty of the coastline that fewer visitors look further inland where the countryside is quite breathtaking and peaceful.
Hill tops and valleys that are steeped in history, castles, windmills, watermills, streams and woodlands with abundant flower and bird life. Five inspired centuries of Islamic civilisation have left Christianised Mosques, fortifications, settlements and ruins, we visit some of these cultural sites on our walks.
