Algarve holidays

Sports and fun in the sunshine

There’s one obvious reason visitors flock to Quinta do Lago, and you’ll spot it the moment you arrive. This is a golfing heartland, where many an international championship has been held. But there is so much more to Quinta do Lago holidays than clubs, caddies and teeing off. Bolstered by the opening of a multi-sports training complex, the tennis scene in Quinta do Lago is becoming bigger every year, and increasing numbers of holidaymakers also come here to cycle – either in the challenging Serra de Monchique mountains or along the laid-back coastal trails.

When it comes to downtime, flawless Quinta do Lago beach is an obvious choice, while you’ll also want to set aside plenty of time to enjoy classic Algarvian dishes at some of the finest restaurants in the region. From Portuguese tapas to freshly caught sea bass and swordfish steaks, everything on holidays to Quinta do Lago goes down nicely with a glass of famously fruity local wine.
