The promenade provides enchanting views of the bay and is flanked by atmospheric bars and cafes. Brightly painted fishing boats rest on the sand after their day’s work. In the old fishermen’s quarters, there is a bar or restaurant hiding in every corner. The spectacular beaches extend beyond Albufeira with Salgados Beach in the west with its dazzling white sand dunes and others framed by magnificent cliffs. Gale, Castelo, Sao Rafael and Arrifes are all splendid. To the east, they all rival each other in beauty and liveliness. Oura, Santa Eulalia, Maria Luisa and Olhos de Agua are gorgeous, and the fabulous Falesia Beach marks the boundary of the municipality. There are over 100 restaurants and bars in the Old Town with the nightlife continuing late at night. The hedonistic ‘Strip’ in the new town is crammed with buzzy, themed bars and clubs. Albufeira is also a wonderful base for a golfing holiday. There are so many courses close by. Further away from the sea, you can explore the lush green fields sprinkled with orange, almond and fig trees and the wonderful towns and villages, including the historical and cultural Silves, Faro and Loule. Silves was originally the ancient capital of the Algarve. It is peaceful and unhurried. The imposing red-brick castle, Gothic cathedral, the impregnatable town walls and the daily market are a joy to explore. The open-air cafes and restaurants, cobbled streets and charming shops give off a warm, unique, Portuguese ambience. Silves is in such a scenic, picturesque location along the banks of the Rio Arade and within the rolling hills of the Algarve countryside.At Excellence Luxury Villas we pride ourselves on going that little bit further for our guests.
