Algarve Tourist Information:
 |
Algarve. Wherever you look, the colours of the mountains and sea are always with
you, creating the impression of a water-colour dotted with highlights of gold,
green and blue. The region is an extensive and pleasant one, with a
Mediterranean climate, marked by the smell of the sea at low tide and the scent
of wild flowers. |
A stroll through the tangled web of narrow streets, alleys and steps to
be found away from the coast is the best way of getting to know this part of
the region. But you can also easily lose yourself in the vastness of the
coastal strip. Here the backdrop is composed of some of Europe's most
beautiful beaches, from where you can admire the rocky coastline and the
playful shadows they cast on the sand.
After the enchantment of the landscape, you can discover the aromas and
flavours of the traditional Algarve cuisine. The menu may consist of fish
and shellfish, with such dishes as caldeirada de peixe (fish-stew) or
cataplana de amijoas (clams steamed in a copper pan), or you can enjoy the
traditional mountain food of stewed chickpeas and cabbage. The range of
choices will also include the famous regional delicacies, such as figs,
almonds, carobs and the brandy made from the locally grown medronho
(arbutus-berry), distilled up in the hills in old copper stills.
As you travel across the Algarve, amidst its hills and plains filled with
places of great ecological interest, rich in biodiversity and ecosystems,
you will feel as though you are passing through an area full of different
traditions, unchanged for many centuries. The handicraft is skillfully
manufactured by the local craftsmen, who make use of longstanding, ancestral
techniques and produce an excellent range of pottery, woven baskets, copper
and brass articles, or other pieces made of linen and jute.
Only a step away from the tranquil peace of the inland region is the
excitement of the Algarve nightlife. Bars, discos, marinas and casinos
guarantee visitors the very best kind of merrymaking.
The region's built heritage is something you cannot afford to miss. The
architecture of the whitewashed houses, with their brightly-coloured
mouldings and remarkably beautiful chimneys, the church belfries and the
museums, all reveal particular memories of the ancestors of the Algarve
people and help to make this such a special destination.
Also to be recommended is the range of outdoor sports that are available,
whether you're playing golf on lush green courses or enjoying some physical
exercise at some of the region's excellent facilities, whether you're on the
coast or perhaps up in the hills, where, after the rigours of winter and
even before the first signs of spring, the land is covered in a pinkish
white blanket, produced by the blossom of the almond-trees scattered across
the horizon.
