The Algarve is known for its unforgettable landscapes, crystal-clear waters and green trails to explore. In a destination where the sun shines 300 days a year, we are transported to a peaceful paradise. Travelling to the Algarve is travelling through time and space, where the days are savoured every second and every nook and cranny offers a glimpse into a new world. Here, a multitude of destinations meet in the same place.

A bit of Santorini in Burgau Village  

Considered by many to be the "Portuguese Santorini", the beaches of Aldeia do Burgau are a reminder of the famous island in the Aegean Sea that plays such a starring role in dream holidays in the movies. In the municipality of Vila do Bispo, the cliffs painted with white and blue houses could be the setting for the next "Mamma Mia".   

Algarve or Albania, that's the question  

Praia da Marinha, in Lagos, transports us to the heart of Albania, more specifically to Pulebarhat beach, and with an extra advantage: instead of the typical stones of Southeastern Europe, feel its soft sand. Known as one of the 100 best beaches in the world, this destination is sculpted by a golden cliff that contrasts perfectly with its blueish waters.  

From the Maltese islands to the Iberian Peninsula  

Finally, we take a dip on Gozo Beach in Malta. We mean, Camilo Beach in Lagos. Embraced by cliffs that give us a new dimension, it is the rocky tunnel that unites these two paradisiacal destinations. At the former, bathers revel in the warm water. At the latter, the dives are more refreshing - the ideal opposition to the hot days in the Algarve. 

Although these beaches resemble international destinations, there's nothing quite like the beauty, culture, gastronomy and hospitality of the Algarve. A land of warm welcomes, where everyone is well-received and invited to experience a dream holiday in a Portuguese paradise.
