Algarve - Neil Schlecht

Berlitz
Pocket Guide Algarve is a concise, full-colour travel guide that gives
you reliable, user-friendly detail and great photos to uncover
Portugal's southern coastal region - one of Europe's premier beach
destinations known for its magnificent year-round weather, superb golf
facilities and top sports holidays. The Algarve has many pleasures to
tempt the visitor: discover glorious stretches of golden sand of leading
resort Albufeira, ocean-skimming golf courses and the excitement of
big-game fishing, horse riding or tennis. Or for something more sedate,
explore the shops to find hand-painted ceramics in towns such as Faro,
Lagos and atmospheric Tavira - one of the region's most historic cities.
Handy maps on the cover flaps help you get around.

To inspire
you, the book offers a rundown of the Algarve's Top 10 Attractions,
followed by ideas for how to spend the Perfect Day. The What to Do
chapter is a snapshot of ways to spend your spare time, from nightlife
and shopping to sports.

The book provides all the essential
background information, including an overview of the Algarve's history,
sporting facilities, and suggestions for excursions to Lisbon. There are
carefully chosen listings of the best hotels and restaurants and an A-Z
of all the practical information you'll need.
