Leisure time

Portugal offers a wide range of free time activities so that everyone will find something to do. People who enjoy the sunny beach side will feel more than well at the beaches of the Algarve. In addition to the light relaxation programmes, there is a lot of history, tradition and culture to discover in Portugal.
Energetic sportsmen can check out many different aquatic sports such as surfing, sailing or canoeing. The diving courses which are offered everywhere are tempting and will lead you to the fascinating underwater world. The Algarve itself is known for its fantastic golf links and the beach is also perfect for horse riding.
The more you travel south, the more flat and sparsely populated the country gets. In the centre of southern Portugal you can gaze unspoiled nature with wild flowers. Many beautiful hiking and cycling paths can be found there. In the backcountry of Portugal safari-trips with Jeeps are offered.
Wine enthusiasts definitely should stop by at winegrowers who offer wine degustation for tourists.
In the cities there are no limits to shopping fever and sightseeing marathons. People who cannot get enough even after a good dinner in one of the countless restaurants will be spoilt for choice between cinema, theatre, concert, disco and many other cultural events.
Portugal offers something for anyone and is in many ways an exciting destination that will last forever in your memory.
