It is not surprising that the most popular holidays sold online are those to the Spanish mainland. But the Algarve, on Portugal’s south coast is just as pleasant as mainland Spain in most regards and can be even more pleasant in certain others. There are many low-priced holidays available in Spain, but people should try one of our bargain holidays in Portugal, and we can give six good reasons why you should choose the Algarve for you next holiday abroad.

1. Fantastic Weather

You can depend on delightful weather right through the year in the Algarve, not too hot in the summer, averaging a very pleasant 28 degrees centigrade in the gentle ocean breeze. And it is pleasantly mild in January, the coldest month, reaching 15 degrees and you can even look forward to 6 hours of sunshine per day. If you are thinking about a package holiday to top up your suntan, whether it is summer or winter, you can rely on the sun in the Algarve.

2. Great Beaches

You will enjoy exploring the various beaches along the Algarve coast. There are more than 30 of different shapes and sizes for you to choose from. You are certain to find beaches for any occasion, such as family parties with children, beaches perfect for water sports like windsurfing and secluded beaches for a quiet relaxing time. But you can be sure all these beaches will be soaked in the Algarve sun and everyone will have the holiday spirit.

3. Terrific Golf

If you fancy a change from sunning yourself on the beach, you can always enjoy a stress-free game of golf. The Algarve has 19 golf courses for you to choose from, so you are certain to find a few that you feel at home with. The Royal Course is world famous, with its Par 3 hole, requiring a long shot of 200 metres to take the ball over 3 awe-inspiring cliffs. The rest of the courses are also enjoyable and you are never far from a quick round on your Algarve holiday.
