Algarve : Heaven on Earth

Heaven on Earth
I bet when the first Phoenician merchants came to settle in Algarve , they were mostly attracted to the stunning beauty of Algarve beaches. Algarve has been claimed as the place where you can find the best beaches in Europe . With the relaxing atmosphere of the country, unspoilt nature, romantic history, delicious cuisine and friendly locals who know how to enjoy life, a perfect holiday for you is guaranteed.

No bitches, but Beaches
Ask all travellers who have been captured-in-the-heart by Algarve , can they get enough of the beaches there? No, we cannot. It is not only because the beaches stretch for 160 kilometers away. Not only because of its golden sand shone by the warm sunshine. Not only because of the unspoilt and undeveloped beaches that you can still find in the West Coast. Or the secluded areas where you can do skinny dipping or nude sunbathing. Do you believe that there are more than thirty beautiful beaches in Algarve? Here is some of best beaches in Algarve :

• Praia Da Arifana

This beach is ideal for family vacation. Your children can happily swim in this beach, off course with fully safety. It's really safe to swim in Praia Da Arifana beach because it has calm and warm weather. This beach also offers other kind activities for family like snorkeling, diving, banana boats, and many more.


• Praia do Tonel

Situated in close to Sagres at the most western point of the Algarve, this beach is really perfect for wind-surfing lovers. Wind surfing at Praia do Tonel is really safety because all of the activities are controlled by professional beach guardians.

When you come to Praia Da Rocha beach, you can see acres of wide open sand as far as eyes can see. It's really cool! This beach is really good for sun bathing. Get the beautiful tan skin in Praia Da Rocha!


• Praia de Barril

What makes this beach attractive is because Praia de Barril is like the beautiful girl. You need extra effort to reach the beach location. You have to walk across a narrow pontoon bridge, or take a ride on the miniature train, or you can walk alongside the track (it's paved) before you come to Praia de Barril. It's quite tiring, but as soon as you reach the beach you will admit that your tiring journey to Praia de Barril is worth it!


• Praia da Ilha de Faro

This is the most crowded beach at Algarve. The location near the airport makes Praia da Ilha de Faro easy to reach. This beach is for the party lovers! Well, if you need private and calm atmosphere, Praia da Ilha de Faro is really not recommended for you!


• Paraiso Beach

Set in a small bay to the west of the town of Carvoeiro lays Paraiso Beach. This is the perfect place for summer holiday with your friends. This beach offers many exciting activities like scuba diving, wind surfing, and many more. Besides sport activities, the nightlife in Paraiso Beach is also the great attraction for tourism.


• Praia do Castelo

Located only approx. 8 km to the west of the tourist resort of Albufeira, the Praia do Castelo is really the favorite place for holidaymakers. This beach is really crowded in peak holiday season. Many people come to the Praia do Castelo's for the clean and white sand. It's really paradise on earth!


• Olhos de Agua

This is the calmest beach in the Algarve. Located at below red rocky cliffs, pine trees and alongside a former fishing village, east of Albufeira, the Olhos de Agua is really the perfect place for you who want to have meditation at calm village atmosphere.

And, what's more?
Of course, sunbathing is not the only thing you can do in Algarve . For those who love sports, there are plenty of choices for (a bit more) active holidays. Surfing, diving, snorkelling, kayaking, sailing or (deep-sea) fishing, are just a few to mention. Dolphin watching and sea excursion is a must for unforgettable experience.

Inland activities are plenty as well. Golf, tennis and horse-riding are popular there. Exploring the region - Faro, Tavira, Sagres, Monchique (winery, mountain) - can be easily done with a rental car. Airsport (at Aerodrome de Lagos), rollerblade-hockey (organized by RollerLagos), blokarting (in a 3-wheeled "car" with a sail and a pilot seat), or safaris in a Jeep or Land Rovers are maybe the stuff that you want try.

Algarve is simply beautiful. Sun, sand, and sea - you can never get enough of them.
