 With nearly 200 Km of spectacular coastline, some of the best beaches in the world and protected from the northern winds by ranges of mountains, the Algarve enjoys a mild climate with average temperatures ranging from 24ºC in the summer to 15ºC in the winter. |
|
|
| The Algarve is traditionally divided into tow halves; the “Sotavento” (leeward side) in the east extending from Albufeira to Vila Real de Santo António and the “Barlavento” (windward side) in the west extending from Albufeira to Sagres. |
| It should, however, be mentioned that there is one school of thought that takes the view that the “Sotavento” does not begin until Faro. |
