Top Tourist Destinations: 
Algarve
The Algarve has a dramatic coastline covered with sandy bays and secluded coves. You can choose between large lively towns or sleepy fishing villages. This resort is also one of the best places in Europe to go for golfers with some spectacular courses. 
Madeira
The Portuguese island of Madeira is set in the Atlantic Ocean, around 1000km away from mainland. It’s nicknamed the Floating Garden thanks to its flower-filled botanical gardens. Make your way to the coast and you’ll come across small rocky coves and pebbly bays.
Lisbon
Not far from the Algarve, the ancient city of Lisbon boasts fine architecture, iconic views and some of the best beaches a city break in Europe can offer.
