| The
Western Algarve |
A
new day dawns in the Western Algarve. The early morning mist clears,
revealing a beautiful green and ochre land. The wild flowers open
to catch the sun. A farmer guides his mule cart to market. Down
at the shore, the fishermen check their nets after bringing home
the night’s catch.
The
new day brings new opportunities. You can simply relax on the beach.
Choose from among the many sheltered sandy coves along the south
coast, or venture a little further to one of the more dramatic west
coast beaches, open to the full grandeur of the Atlantic swell. |
 |
Situated within the Costa Vicentina Natural Park, these beaches
are among the most beautiful and least crowded in Europe.
The park protects one hundred and fifty kilometres of unspoilt
coastline. Explore the cliffs and ravines, roam free among
sand dunes and heath lands, and discover a hidden wealth of
flora and fauna.
As
midday approaches, cooling Atlantic air currents provide a
welcome counterpoint to the summer heat. Time to enjoy a game
of tennis or a round of golf. Or take out a sport fishing
boat from Lagos’ award-winning marina. |
|
| Colourful
Lagos, the launching point for Portugal’s epic voyages
of discovery, has been a local centre of commerce since medieval
times. The markets display a wide variety of fresh produce.
|
The
pavement restaurants serve locally caught seafood at surprisingly
reasonable prices. In the evening, the narrow cobbled lanes
come alive with people watching the street performers and
thronging the bars that stay open until late. And at night,
the way home is illuminated by the stars that shine so brightly
in the crystal clear air.
Here,
under the direction of an award-winning, environmental architect,
the Elixir Group is creating a unique new development –
AlmaVerde Village & Spa. |
