Europe · Destination guide
Europe’s west edge, at its warmest.
Europe’s west edge: golden cliffs, Atlantic light and the continent’s most reliable winter golf. The Algarve pairs championship courses with fishing-village charm and long, unhurried lunches.
Where to go
Tram 28, pastéis de nata and miradouro sunsets over the Tagus.
Golden cliffs, family resorts and forty golf courses within an hour.
Port cellars and terraced river valleys by boat or vintage train.
Levada walks, cloud forests and year-round spring.
Seasons
The golf sweet spot — mild, mostly dry and far from summer crowds. Christmas golf in shirtsleeves is entirely normal.
Beach season: hot days tempered by Atlantic breezes. Book early tee times to beat the heat.
Things to experience
Blistered custard tarts from a Lisbon pastry chef.
The Algarve’s famous sea-cave dome from water level.
Quinta terraces where port is born.
Portugal’s blues, sung close enough to feel.
Know before you go
Portugal’s answer to tapas: grilled sardines, garlic prawns and green wine by the sea. Finish with a tawny port — it’s from here, after all.
The untranslatable Portuguese feeling — a warm melancholy best heard in fado music drifting through old-town Faro or Lisbon.
Where to stay
Family pools above the golden coves.
Azulejo-tiled townhouses in Alfama and Chiado.
Sleep on the terraces among the vines.
