Alvor, Algarve


Alvor as a small fishing village is now a very popular holiday area. It lies west of Portimao in the Algarve region of Portugal. It's narrow, cobbled streets and it quaint way of life have kept the developments away.


This is what the tourist enjoy most about this village.


In most of the streets you will find all different types of restaurants, bars and craft shops. Most of the bars have live music. Bolan Bar being one of my favorites and the best place to sample a caipirinha.


Alvor faces the Lagos bay with it long sandy beach witch has a number of small coves under the cliffs.


The village is surrounded with well known Hotels and apartments. Alvor is only 70 Kms from Faro Airport.

Sagres + End of the Old World

The Sagres Point (Ponta de Sagres, Portuguese pronunciation) is a windswept shelf-like promontory located in southwest Algarve region of southern Portugal.



Often referred to as the end of the world by early sailors as the left Europe for the open sea.

Running With The Bulls

It is not easy to understand why a full-grown man would climb into a ring, look a bull in the eye and dare it to charge him. But stranger things have been done in the name of "tradition."
