Alcoutim guide

Alcoutim Portugal

The city of Alcoutim is located on the Guadiana river, which separates Portugal from Spain. It is hence a border town, but it is also part of the Algarve and this makes it a valid travel destination for many holidaymakers.

Situated in the eastern part of the Algarve and in the south of Portugal, it is one of the relative few inland resorts but despite this it still features a beach, thanks to the river. The city proper offers a lot of interesting features including accommodations, gastronomy and various events. The city’s surroundings are also very rich with opportunities thanks to places like the Vila Real de Santo Antonio and Castro Marim to name a few of the major ones.

Algarve Golfing Holidays

The Algarve is a great destination for all those who are passionate about golf.
The sport of golf has been growing in popularity over the past decade or so, with all age groups. Although it used to be something that only middle-aged and older people used to do, golf has become a much more popular pass-time now with the younger generations as well and this has made the golfing holiday a much more common reason for people to visit new places around their country or indeed the world.

Popular Portugal

Portugal is a very popular tourist destination amongst Europeans and Brits especially, but oftentimes most of the attention is directed at the southern region of the Algarve as that is the most popular, but the northern regions shouldn’t be overlooked when planning a trip there.
