Western Algarve

To speak of the Western Algarve is to conjure up images of golden cliffs sculpted by the Atlantic, secret beaches of fine sand and unforgettable sunsets at the southwesternmost point of Europe.

Stretching from Albufeira to Sagres, this region is a mosaic of history and natural beauty. From the Age of Discovery, when Sagres was the centre of the known world, to the fishing villages that retain their authentic charm, the Western Algarve is a living testimony to Portugal’s maritime heritage.

Here, history is not only found in monuments, but in every grain of sand and every wave that kisses the shore.
