Too much of coastal Portugal has been covered in enormous resorts but there are still one or two gorgeous, wild corners for you to enjoy.
For families, we have three superb beach resort options in the Algarve: Pine Cliffs and Martinhal Beach Resort. The elegant Vila Vita Parc hotel is a very beautiful option too.

Located on the Atlantic coast Portugal’s weather is affected by this vast body of water.

Winters tend to be milder and due to the Atlantic rain is not uncommon, but you can still expect many warm, sunny days. Definitely T-shirt weather, even in December.
