WHY GO?
Golden beaches framed by the bluest of seas and miles of craggy coastline, small restaurants serving freshly caught fish and, of course, endless hours of sun. With attractions like these, it’s little wonder the Algarve draws more than two million of us to its shores each year.
A speedy two-hour flight from the UK and a 30-minute taxi ride from Faro Airport, and you can feel your shoulders drop as you arrive at the emerald-lawned entrance to Vale do Lobo, a stylish resort on the surf-tickled Atlantic coast. Famous for its championship golf courses and tennis academy, it’s also a haven of natural beauty, set in 1,000 acres of gorgeous greenery and fringed by a ribbon of caramel sands.
ACTIVITIES GALORE
While the sun, sea and lush landscape do wonders for your wellbeing, the outdoor activities on offer will get you buzzing. Top of the list for golfers is teeing off on one of the two championship courses, complete with ocean views. Want to raise your tennis game? Book a lesson with a coach at the on-site academy. Meanwhile, a timetable of fitness classes – aqua therapy, Pilates, yoga – will leave you stretched, toned and walking a few inches taller.
