The Algarve region of Portugal is rich in history. Romans, Muslims and Christians have occupied the Algarve throughout the ages and many of the artefacts left by these civilizations still remain today. In fact, evidence of human settlements in the Algarve go as far back as the Neolithic period.
Five hundred years of Moorish influence have left the most recognizable imprint upon the region. Algarve is derived from the Moorish term: Al-Gharb, meaning The West. In fact, many Algarvian town and village names have their origins in the Moorish occupation of the territory, which occurred from the 8th to the 13th century. This influence is additionally visible in the region's agriculture, architecture and cuisine.
The Algarve enjoys the best climate in Europe. With only a short period of rainfall ( between November and March) and long hours of sunshine (the highest in Europe). During the summer months, temperatures are high, with water temperatures of around 22°C.
The Algarve climate is influenced by continental Europe, North Africa, the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean. Average temperatures in the Algarve vary between 15ºC and 31°C, almost never falling below zero in the winter months.
Due to its location, bordered by both land and sea, Algarve resorts enjoy good transport connections. Various international airlines, including the low cost carriers, fly regularly to the Algarve, via Faro Airport.
The Algarve also benefits from a recently modernized road network, making road travel around the region uncomplicated. Rail travellers in the region have easy access to the Portuguese rail service (CP - Comboios de Portugal) which links the Algarve with the rest of Portugal and beyond.
Albufeira is one of Portugal's most famous tourist cities in the Faro district of Algarve. Since the 1960's when it first became popular as a holiday destination with tourists from northern Europe, it has developed from a picturesque fishing town into a bustling holiday resort. Its history stretches back to Roman times when it was known as "Baltum". The Moors, who occupied the town in the 8th century, renamed it Al-Buhera, which means 'The Castle on the Sea'.
Albufeira, which lies just forty minutes drive from the the Algarve's international airport, Faro, can be divided into two main areas of interest: Albufeira old town and Albufeira new town.
The city of Vilamoura, recently voted Europe's premier golf destination, lies just 15 minutes drive to the east of Albufeira but there are still a couple of good quality courses close to central Albufeira itself.
