				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>1. Sagres</strong><br />
Sagres, located at the westernmost coast of the Algarve, is the most wild and untamed destination. Windswept, bleak landscapes, steep cliffs, and turbulent waves distinguish this location. The town of Sagres is small, and there aren&#8217;t as many tourist attractions.<br />
It is, nonetheless, an excellent location for surfing and relaxing. The town has two beaches, one on the south coast and one on the west coast, you should definitely pay a visit!<span id="more-3029"></span></p>
<p><strong>2. Ferragudo</strong><br />
Ferragudo is a charming fishing village near the city of Portimo. Walking about this traditional fishing town, with its white buildings stretching down to the river, is an experience in and of itself. However, Praia Grande is also a terrific area to unwind and enjoy watersports like windsurfing.<br />
Enjoy this beautiful location while having the great memories ever!</p>
<p><strong>3. Lagos and Ponta da Piedade</strong><br />
Lagos is the liveliest town in the western Algarve and, in our opinion, one of the greatest places to base yourself. It offers a variety of cafés and restaurants, as well as historical sites such as castle walls, churches, and the Forte da Ponta da Bandeira. Combine this with its stunning coastline, which is dotted with steep cliffs, caves, and grottoes, and you have one of the Algarve&#8217;s most scenic places.<br />
Come and visit this amazing place, you won’t regret it!</p>
<p><strong>4. Ria Formosa’s Island</strong><br />
The Ria Formosa, a 60-kilometer-long maze of lagoons, salinas (salt pans), marshes, barrier islands, and dunes along the central Algarve coast, is one of the best sites to explore in the Algarve.<br />
This protected natural park, one of Portugal&#8217;s &#8217;7 Natural Wonders,&#8217; is also a wildlife haven.<br />
This region of the Algarve is known for its Mediterranean Chameleons, bird viewing &#8211; particularly seasonal flamingos &#8211; and a wealth of seahorses, with dolphins frequently spotted further out.<br />
It’s a breathtaking landscape, don’t miss this extraordinary experience!</p>
<p><strong>5. Monchique</strong><br />
Hills rise gently between the Algarve coast and the neighboring region of Alentejo before becoming mountain ranges. The highest and most prominent is the Serra de Monchique, which offers a verdant playground far removed from the coastal vacation cities.<br />
If you&#8217;re seeking for hiking paths and peaceful landscapes, the Algarve&#8217;s serra (mountain region) has some of the best active activities. Fóia, the region&#8217;s highest peak, rises to just over 900 meters and is accessible by car. On a clear day, one may see beautiful views of the Algarve and the Atlantic Ocean from here.<br />
It’s a peaceful blessing being here!</p>

<p><strong>Ferragudo</strong> is a tranquil charming village situated on the Arade estuary, rich in breathtaking landscapes, with an unbelievable picturesque atmosphere and lovely whitewashed cottages with astonishing hillside streets.<br />
Originally a traditional fishing village with a very warm and welcoming people, cute boats, fascinating tales and stories, this incredible place managed to preserve its traditional and unique spirit and to flourish the same time.<br />
This rare gem can be admired and visited anytime of the year, while discovering new things and trying a wide range of new activities like cycling to the lighthouse, or snorkeling amongst Atlantic marine life, there’s plenty of amazing things to do in Ferragudo!</p>
<p><strong>Monchique</strong> village is another fairy tale place, which will immediately and irrevocably win your heart and is worth visiting if you spend your holidays in Algarve.<br />
Monchique is the highest village of the Algarve, located 485 meters above sea level located in the Algarve and it perfectly preserves the touch of past times, as well as its old and peaceful soul.<br />
Monchique is the perfect destination to take a moment of reflection, to feel the nature, to think, to take a deep breath and to embrace the wonders this enchanting place has to offer.<br />
It is said the Romans populated Monchique due the Monchique mountains’s healing water. Even nowadays the village is highly sought after by visitors due to natural thermal baths, which are still believed to have healing properties.</p>
<p>One of the most beautiful and special beaches from Algarve, <strong>Odeceixe beach</strong> is located in the muncipality of Aljezur and it’s part of the Costa Vicentina natural park.<br />
Its atypical horseshoe shape is one of the numerous interesting and fascinating things about this famous beach, which doesn’t cease to amaze us especially through its unspoilt quality, Odeceixe beach remaining quite &#8220;hidden&#8221; and &#8220;undiscovered&#8221;.<br />
You will definitely fall in love with the fine sands, the crystal clear waters, the whitewashed clifftop village and the small lagoons which appear in the sand during low tide.<br />
The Ribeira de Seixe river is partly what makes Praia de Odeceixe so beautiful. On one side of the beach there is the ocean and on the other side is the river, Ribeira de Seixe actually separating the regions of Algarve and Alentejo.</p>
<p>If you’re an explorer and you enjoy the adventures, walks and new discoveries on each holiday, this place is the perfect destination where you can practise you skills and enjoy your hobbies.<br />
The<strong> Seven Hanging Valleys Trail</strong> is a scenic coastal trail located in Algarve with spectacular views, stunning coves and memorable sunsets which will take your breath away!<br />
The best way to explore them? On foot! There are many coastal walks along Portugal’s southern coast, but the Seven Hanging Valleys Trail is among the most impressive. This almost 12km trail offers a lot of attractions, a quality time and outstanding landscapes while enjoying nature and tranquility away from the crowded and loud cities.</p>
<p>Located a few kilometres northwest of Sagres is the historic <strong>Cabo de Sao Vicente</strong>, which is the most south-westerly point of mainland Europe.<br />
This magnificent place cannot be missed, especially at sunset when everything is magically transformed in memories, moments, unforgettable images and colors.<br />
You just cannot unsee the memorable red lighthouse, which houses a small but excellent museum showcasing Sagres&#8217; role in Portugal’s maritime history and which promises incredible memories.</p>
