Portugal is full of sunshine, sea and sand, with a lot more in between, from quaint villages and ancient churches to rolling hills and arid plains. Portugal is a place to explore at a leisurely pace, drinking in all of the sights and sounds of Portugal while taking time to appreciate the countryside and people.
Visitors and sun seekers have been flocking to Portugal for more than fifty years, since the upsurge in foreign holidays. Not only is Portugal beautiful, but the great weather makes it ideal to visit from early spring to late autumn.
Despite this, Portugal has so much to offer the visitor who comes for a few days or decides to stay for a month. Northern Portugal has a more conservative feel to it with the main produce of corn and potatoes being grown, while in the south a more Mediterranean laidback attitude pervades the lifestyle of the locals.
It is worth visiting both parts to get a real feel for Portugal and all the beauties it holds from Valenca, a fortified town in the north, to Olhao, a fishing port where you can hire a boat out to the sandbank islands.
