Algarve winter holiday
Going on an Algarve winter holiday might just be one of the best ideas that you’ve had since the moment that you started considering leaving your cold home for warmer shores. The Algarve is known for the great weather, and one might think that during the winter months it’s just decent weather here, but you’ll be pleased to know that average temperatures in October and November are somewhere between 19 to 22 Centigrade, and there are anywhere from six to eight hours of sunshine during the day, it’s absolutely great. Compare those temperatures to those just a bit north of the Iberian Peninsula and you get much lower numbers.
Now from December through to February it does get a bit colder here as well, something around 16 Centigrade, for about six hours per day. Those living in the temperate climate of Europe already know that during those months temperatures in the minus digits are normal and going above freezing is rather abnormal for many days. In the Algarve you’ll have some of the most pleasant winter climate that Europe has to offer.
We’ve pretty much made it clear that the weather in the Algarve in the winter is absolutely stunning, but what can you do while enjoying the great weather? Well pretty much anything that you’d normally do here in the summer, maybe with a little less sunbathing, but many other outdoor activities are still available to you.
Anything and everything, from kayaking and golfing to rambling and exploring the countryside are options at your disposal, and keep in mind that you can also use some Algarve car rental services in order to explore more of the region at your own pace. This is particularly useful for those who want to visit certain sites in the region that are in different locations, or for enthusiast golfers who want to enjoy as many courses as possible.
