The Algarve is one of the top choices for British family holidays, mainly due to its consistently good beach resorts along a coast stretching from the Spanish border to Cape St Vincent. Families know that places such as Albufeira, Carvoeiro, Praia De Rocha and Lagos not only have sandy beaches but also safe bathing, good child- friendly restaurants and quality accommodation. In recent years more accommodation has been developed in the coastal mountains offering cool higher aptitudes and excellent views. It is here that holiday makers can take a break from sunbathing with arts and craft shopping in Loule or exploring the spa town of Monchique.

There are a range of activities for sporty types or those who do not want two solid weeks of sunbathing such as sailing, windsurfing, horse riding, rock climbing, tennis and hiking. But the really big sporting attraction here in the Algarve is golf. Dozens of sun-soaked courses, some of the best maintained in the world, await golfers of all abilities.
