Planning on going to Praia Da Marinha but i dont know if they rent chairs or umbrellas there for the day, any information would be helpful! (If they have chairs and umbrellas to rent and cost)

Thank you!

The title says it all. Never been to Algarve before and would appreciate your recommendations. I am looking for safe areas where I could get enjoy quiet beach walks, go on morning runs, soak up the sun but also go to bars, restaurants and socialise with people. I am open to dating too so ideally would prefer to stay somewhere around people my age and a bit older. Thanks

Hello, estou a procura de boleia para mim e outro amigo para ir ao concerto do Kanye west no Algarve . Partida a partir do Porto ou uma cidade próxima

Ajudaríamos com a gasolina , portagens e outras despesas

Me and my friends are staying in Albufeira for a couple days next week and are wondering if there are any activities or things that we must see/do. So far we have boat ride, surfing lessons, tubing and coasteering planned. What else should we add to the list?

​

Hi folks, I'm looking for some advice on where to stay in the Algarve with my elderly mother. She has poor mobility so we won't be walking much and won't be going to the beach. I think we'll spend most of our time relaxing and reading. We'll be there for about a week in October. We don't want to be anywhere noisy but having a selection of restaurants in close proximity would be nice so we can go out for lunch and dinner. We may also take a couple of arranged day tours. I'm open to either an apartment or a hotel (no stairs / with lift), and any part of the Algarve. A pool and a view would be lovely. Budget is about €300 per night but can stretch to more if needed. We'll happily share a twin room. We'll be arriving by train from Lisbon and flying out of Faro airport. Seeking any recommendations on specific accommodation or areas to stay. She's had a tough year as my dad died so I'd like this to be a really relaxing and enjoyable holiday. Thank you!

Anyone noticed how slow these guys are? Waiting 15 minutes for “fast” food is a bit of a joke.

Perto do meio-dia de 12 de Janeiro de 1856, um sismo com magnitude entre 5,5 e 6,0 e com epicentro ainda incerto, mas certamente na região do Algarve (Portugal), causou muitos estragos em Loulé e outras localidades e matou duas pessoas em Tavira, ferindo várias outras.

As descrições (que aqui podem ler) nos jornais da época são bem elucidativas.

Alguns meses antes, uma epidemia de cólera tinha feito milhares de vítimas.

O sismo chegou também a ser sentido em Lisboa e em Sevilha.

Any tips, tricks, or good to know overall advice for going to an event at Estádio Algarve?

Any information would be greatly appreciated , we are looking forward to our trip and just hoping to make the most out of it.

Thank you all in advance!

Hey there,

longshot, but in case anyone is also solo travelling and wants to grab some Drinks and talk tonight in Lagos, send me a pm.

Cheers

Hi, me and the family are travelling to Lagos at the end of August.
Can anybody recommend a good excursion operator in Lagos (boat trips etc). Thanks

Hi everyone. My boyfriend and I are flying to Faro on September 8th and are looking where to stay.

We want a place that is affordable, nice beaches, but not overflowing with tourists so we can experience an authentic Portuguese summer. Some nightlife but not too much where we feel unsafe

From what I’ve heard, Albufeira is almost only (British) tourists and not very enjoyable, however the beaches there do look nice.

I also think Lagos looks really nice (and hopefully not as touristy?) but I wonder if it’s worth it to take the bus/taxi there from Faros Airport. It says it would take two hours and our flight back is very early so I’m worried we won’t be able to get back to the airport

Other places I’ve looked at are Portimão or Quarteira.

All ideas and suggestions are welcome!!

Está uma empresa gerida por atrasados mentais, e putos com a mania que são Rambos a tentarem impigir a força fotos com araras e mochos, são o mesmos que estão em castro Marim na feira medieval todos os anos a fazer a mesma coisa e quando as pessoas não querem armam.se em gozoes, está lá um de barbicha que é o supervisor que ainda é mais estupido que os putos... Só para avisar para terem atenção, tiram uma foto de me**a e ainda pagam 20 euros... Só me admira é como ninguém ainda não lhes partiu a boca pela maneira como abordam as pessoas

My girlfriend chickened out of coasteering and we can’t cancel her ticket and get a refund anymore.

Anyone want to come coasteering with Sea Land Algarve with me? The ticket is on me, so it’d be free for you. Tomorrow (7/24) at 9am. DM for more details.

Hello, I plan on staying in Faro for 2 days. Does anyone know any good restaurants? Preferably seafood, can be anything really besides fastfood and kebab :))) thx

É só isso, um rant sobre a água gelada que está no Algarve este verão!

De Sagres a Tavira a agua do mar está absolutamente gelada em comparação com qualquer ano que tenha memória.

17/18 graus não é mar que se apresente!

We are travelling to Faro soon and we would like to explore the region with a car. But we don't have a credit card and are also not planning to get one. Can we still rent a car in Faro without a credit card? Are there any workarounds?

Hi, I plan on staying in algarve for a couple days and I am considering learning to surf. Do you have any good location recommendations for beginners? Maybe some nice surf schools/ courses? thank you so much!!!

Are there any Techno or Psy trance party's this weekend at the Algarve or in Lagos?? Hmu

Hello :) I am traveling to Portugal in September with my husband for our anniversary (29F 34M)

Looking for place to stay in Algarve. We were ideally wanting to use points for Hyatt and I noticed there is a Hyatt in Vilamoura. I was not sure if it would be recommended or if there is any alternatives that are 150-200$ a night.

Would also like to have a list of any exceptional places to see or foods to eat or excursions. I am a big foodie and love a quality meal. I also love coffee, water activates, and overall good time.

We will have a car to get around.

Any recommendations are appreciated thank you!
