The Algarve region stretches over the whole of southern Portugal. The word Algarve is of Arabic origin (El-Gharb) meaning "west".

If you wish to visit Algarve region in Portugal, you will find there many enjoyable and vibrant places. Situated along the Atlantic ocean coast the Algarve region offers incredibly beautiful beaches and a great number of golf courses. Bring in great night life and shopping, and you will have something for everybody to savor at Algarve.

You will find a lot of excellent activities and places to do and see in the region. Have a holiday in Algarve yourself and you will soon find out what a lot of others have discovered before - the one and only fact that it is difficult to depart.

Portugal, a country of rich seafaring past, is situated west of Spain on the west coast of Europe's Iberian Peninsula.

Situated in south-western part of the European continent and overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, with islands groups such as the Azores, Savage and Madeira, Portugal's climatic conditions are mainly influenced by the land mass of the Iberian Peninsula and at the same time by the ocean. A large area of the shoreline, namely Parque natural da Ria Formosa, is a protected area.

The Algarve coast is protected from the north winds and its summer temperatures are excellent for beach vacations.

Those planning an ideal holiday or even considering the possibilities of relocating in the region will find great choice of Algarve holiday villas and apartments for rent or sale available there.

These properties are affordable and yet luxurious and usually offer private balconies, individual pools, and private laundry rooms. Purchasing a holiday property in Algarve offers superb beach holiday facilities with great summer time climate, great culture, architecture and history.

Having a holiday villa or an apartment in Algarve is presently popular among Europeans. These holiday homes are relatively inexpensive and a good value for money.

Portugal is definitely a popular choice on the overseas property market. Construction quality is high, property prices have risen a stable 10-15% per year because the year 2000, as well as there is an extensive selection of properties at various price ranges.

If you are looking for a vacation dedicated to relaxation or pleasure then Algarve is the perfect holiday destination. It's a small area but offers over 100 miles of incredible sandy beaches.

This southern-most region of Portugal is really a tourists' dream with excellent year-round climate, fine beaches, incredible scenery and - on all of that topped with the hospitality of the local people.

The inner parts of the Algarve continue to be relatively unexplored. The flower decked, white washed houses in the country towns still keep their traditional atmosphere and appearance, where crafts continue to be an essential industry for that locals.

Algarveans are really understanding, tolerant and laid-back people, who've witnessed much changes during the recent decades since their region become so popular. Some of them still keep the old lifestyle and continue living undisturbed by the hordes of tourists who're attracted to this lovely region.

Those who once experience what Algarve has to offer become true devotees. If you seek warm places, sea, sand and stress free vacations, then Algarve is the right place for you.

Those, keen on exploring the inland, will find lands rich in history and cultural heritage. Great part of this heritage, in particular the Moorish architectural achievements, has been very well preserved.

Moreover, the contrasts, between beach and mountain tops, sand and greenery, present and past, offer tourists many options of how they can spend their Algarve holiday.

Furthermore most cities and towns have museums with artifacts from Roman and pre-Roman times on display. The Romans left several bridges and ruins.

Algarveans are happy with their diverse culture. Regardless of the time of the year, there's always a Saint's day that brings about brightly colored festive days, which the local people enjoy with a whole-heartedly.

Public transportation inside the region is very efficient and inexpensive, which allows more adventurous tourists to explore further than the tourist areas only. The year-round fragrances of pine, eucalyptus, rock-rose, and lavender, all growing there in profusion, alone are worth the visit.

Tourists can undertake day trips to either the eastern or western halves of Algarve. Meals at inland restaurants or other dining establishments will probably be even cheaper than those in the tourist seaside areas.

All of the above leads me to a rather apparent question: Why am I still writing this rather than browsing the internet for my dream holiday house in Algarve.
