Spanish Algarve

The Spanish Algarve is the most westerly part of Spain bordering Portugal and boasts unspoilt, uncrowded beaches, typically Spanish fishing villages and towns, pine forests and sand dunes, a wealth of bird life, superb sailing areas and wonderful golf courses.

Little wonder it's Spain's best kept secret!

This beautiful unspoilt coastal region of Spain lies in the far west of Andalusia, on the border with Portugal. Also known as the Spanish Algarve, it lays claim to many of the best beaches in the whole of Spain, offering peace and tranquillity in abundance. It is not only the golden sands, washed by clear blue seas backed by sweeping, dramatic dunes that catch the eye, there are also many majestic pine forests, rolling hills and open countryside dotted with traditional white washed villages.

Three important factors have combined to open up this area: the new bridge between Portugal and Spain, the modern motorway network and low cost airlines. Faro airport is only a short and easy drive away and excellent scheduling provides swift access for all who have been lucky enough to discover this "hidden jewel" and choose to visit and enjoy the new golf courses, sail, or simply to relax in wonderful surroundings.
