Carvoeiro holidays simply has it all a holiday to Carvoeiro is for everyone. A the best thing about Carvoeiro is the weather so grab your suntan lotion and head to the beach as the Carvoeiro beach is fantastic. Enjoy lunch in one of the Carvoeiro restaurants and laze the day away as Carvoeiro will give you that de stress holiday.
Holiday in Carvoeiro and you may find yourself hooked! Once a fishing village, it's lost none of its charm, and many people just keep on coming back year after year. Tucked into a spectacular coastline, this little town centres on an open-sided village square, where you can eat al fresco with views past the colourful fishing boats to the sea. A few steps and you're on sand, kicking off your sandals to enjoy Carvoeiro's small sandy beach which is sheltered by cliffs rising up from the bay.
Venture the other way, and whitewashed lanes riddled with endearing souvenir shops and easygoing bars beckon you to explore. Development here is thoughtfully low rise, so whether you've booked a last minute holiday or chosen your summer holiday in Carvoeiro well ahead, you should find yourself staying in an attractive complex. If you're self catering, there's a busy local produce market, as well as plenty of very good restaurants serving mouth watering local specialities.
When it comes to exploring, it's the contorted coastline that really sticks in the memory. You must go to Algar Seco. Catch a lift with a fisherman to see the crazy rock formations from the sea, then discover Carvalho Cove and twist through the tunnels to the sea. Families will find this an excellent base with good accommodation somewhere like the Colina Village, and attractions such as the Slide and Splash Waterpark just down the road.
Bursting with character, this dazzling whitewashed fishing village is the place to head for heaps of Portuguese atmosphere.”
Charismatic yet peaceful, small yet full of life – Carvoeiro is one of those resorts that just has it all. Oozing authentic Portuguese charm, this place can’t help but spellbind those who visit, and has people coming back time and time again. And once you’ve set foot here you’ll see why. Cut into half moon cliffs, the coastline is dramatically woven with intricate caves and golden beaches, and with mainly low rise apartments and villas the breathtaking landscape has been pretty much left how mother nature intended. Typical old-town narrow streets are scattered with alluring little shops and twist down to a pretty village square, where you can sample the endless wine lists - after all, you are in the wine-producing region of Lagos. The square overlooks the shimmering shores, which gently slope out to the transparent sea, more often than not crammed full of colourful fishing boats. It’s fringed with bustling cafes and restaurants and is a prime spot to eat al fresco and drink in the views. And what a picture the coastline is. The dramatic ochre cliffs shelter numerous mystical grottoes and lead to a number of outstanding pristine beaches. Within walking distance is Algar Seco, with its theatrical rock formations and Carvalho cove, where half the fun is navigating your way through a labyrinth of tunnels. Add to all this animated bars, restaurants serving inviting international and local dishes and excellent activities such as golf and horse riding - and you can’t go wrong in this relaxed holiday haven.
