Whether you’re dreaming about escaping the dreary UK winter, or planning ahead to next summer’s family holiday, you don’t need to go far for year-round sunshine.
Famed for having more than 300 days of glorious sunshine a year, the Algarve in Portugal has one of the warmest climates in Europe, making it the perfect sunny getaway – whatever the time of year.
Here’s our top five reasons for visiting the Algarve.

The Algarve is perfectly geared towards families

During the summer months, the Algarve gets over 12 hours of beautiful sunshine a day. Temperatures never get extreme though (the average temperature in the summer is 30 degrees C), making it a great choice if you have young children. The area is also very safe, and children are welcomed everywhere.

A very family-friendly resort, Golden Club Cabanas is a great place to stay with little ones. The resort offers a kids club for children aged 4-12 from April to October. A weekly activity programme including kite-making, theatre and puppet shows, dance, and cooking will keep little ones entertained whilst you take some much needed time to relax on the beach.
The resort also offers a lively programme of evening entertainment for families to enjoy all year around. From live music, to magic, karaoke, games and quizzes, there’s always something happening.

It’s an area of outstanding natural beauty

Stretching 60 km along the Algarve coast and nestled between the beaches of Manta Rota and Garrão, is the Ria Formosa Natural Park. Teaming with flora and fauna, the conservation area has a diverse ecosystem and attracts numerous species of birds. Nature lovers will enjoy visiting at any time of the year, and it’s the perfect place to enjoy a hike, taking in the area’s mountain ranges.
If you’re staying at Golden Club Cabanas, the resort has exclusive boat access to one of the region’s most beautiful golden sandy beaches. Enjoy a stroll along the estuary boardwalk or explore the natural trails around Cabanas.

It’s the ideal place for wellness and relaxation

Aside from being the perfect place to top up your vitamin D, the Algarve is renowned for its wellness retreats. Whether you’re looking for a fitness boot camp, yoga getaway, or high tech medical spa, you’ll find it in the Algarve.
