adventurous experiences

The Algarve is a luminous region with a thousand corners that are worth exploring. Some of them, for true adventurers:

• Cape of San Vicente. Let's start with the icing on the cake, almost literally also if we take into account that it is the westernmost point of the Algarve. The sunsets are some of the best in the Iberian Peninsula, so go find a place and don't miss them.
• Route of the Seven Hanging Valleys. The coast is full of cliffs from which to see unforgettable landscapes. This route, near Marinha beach, allows you to enjoy them in all their splendor.
• Piedade Bridge. This rock formation is one of the most complete from our point of view. Whether it is to go down the cliff and touch the Atlantic or go kayaking, this site is one of the most impressive in the Algarve.
• Benagil Cave. A postcard landscape under a rock dome. That is this natural temple that you can only access by boat or kayak

The beaches you must visit in Algarve

It doesn't matter when you decide visit algarve by motorhome, its beaches will always be the main attraction. In summer you can take a refreshing bath or sunbathe (with more people around, yes), but this plan can be repeated the rest of the year if the temperatures are favorable. If not, there is always the option of taking long and comforting walks by the sea. A good way to disconnect, without a doubt.

Much more than sun and beach

But the Algarve has other places to discover. Its heritage is present in its cities and its people, so cultural immersion is another of the charms of the region. This appointment with history is concentrated, above all, in five cities with their own way of being, but always in tune with the prevailing spirit in the area.

• Lighthouse. The capital of Algarve is the third city in the country that receives the most tourism. The cathedral and the entire old town contain a historical legacy that recalls the passage of various civilizations.
• Lagos. A municipality that concentrates the purest essence of the Algarve, sunny and relaxed along its cobbled streets and monuments such as the Forte da Ponta da Bandeira.
• Tavira. On the banks of the Gilão River, this charming city is a labyrinth of streets that preserves the layout that the Arabs once devised.
• Olhao. Locality with a fishing tradition from which to look out over the Ria Formosa. Its market is one of the most picturesque in the region. Do not miss it if you want to try the wonderful local fish or have a drink on the terraces of its bars.
• Portimão. It is the largest city in the western Algarve. Over time it has become a tourist epicenter thanks to its beaches, shops and restaurants. You can't miss out on the promenade.
