How about a trip to Algarve
A Brief Summary
The Algarve is a mixed bag. Very sleepy, quiet and chilled-out in the winter, with only a small number of shops and attractions open to visitors, compared to a full-on tourist hotspot in mid-summer. Glorious weather in September and fewer children around, means a little more space on the wonderful beaches to unwind after a potentially heavy night. If you want peace and quiet, even in mid-summer, you’ll find it. You don’t have to look hard however, particularly in the towns of Albufeira, Lagos or Portimao, to find bars, pubs and clubs to distract you until sun comes up.
Location
About the Weather
Portugal’s warmest and sunniest location, in the far south of the country, with winters being very bright and showery and summers almost rainless and exceptionally sunny. 12 hours a day sunshine occurs here from Jun to Aug, when temperatures average 30°c by day and nearly 20°c by night. Ocassional heatwaves see temperatures exceed 40°c when winds fall lighter and heat arrives from the Sahara, often accompanied by dusty skies laden with fine sand. Autumn is warm and sunny and rains only really occur reliably from Oct onwards, although skies remain largely clear until Nov, when temperatures drop to 20°c and much heavier showers occur, often with windy weather. Winters are mild and bright, but with heavy showers.
