Algarve


3 Best Attractions on the Algarve

For visitors who like a little action on holiday the Algarve’s Quad Ventura quad biking treks in Albufeira is for you. Drive off-road on a 4 x 4 quad bike and visit the lesser known sights of this beautiful region of Portugal. Many routes off the beaten track are impossible, or at least extremely difficult, to traverse but the snappy little quad bike is just what the doctor ordered to visit the Algarve in depth. Algarve quad bikes are fully automatic and easy to drive, making them a fantastic family fun activity.

A great day out is to be had at the Zoomarine Algarve. Situated in Guia, a mile or so from Albufeira children and adults alike will marvel at the dolphin, sea lions and seals displays. Also on site are a host of tropical birds and hunters. Inside the aquarium can be seen a good selection of marine life including sharks, 4D cinema, swimming pools and more.

Albufeira Old Town must rank as one of the best attractions on the Algarve with its never ending winding lanes and alleyways packed with little shops, bistros and bars. Lifts are available throughout the Old Town that take the visitor from the ground to the higher points of the town. Albufeira Old Town abounds with street entertainers, jugglers, magicians and of course the famous ‘statues’ and is therefore an excellent place to people watch and just take things easy in the midst of the hustle and bustle that is Old Town life.
