Highlights
The highest point in the Algarve, Monchique captivates with its green surroundings, the simplicity of its people and the quality of its gastronomy. Its strategic location thanks to its mountains made Monchique an important point for the Romans as well as the Arabs. In the 15th century, King João II was so impressed by the therapeutic properties of Monchique’s thermal waters that he ordered the construction of a thermal facility which, at the time, was a point of attraction for the locals and has remained a distinctive feature of the region to this day. Monchique thus proves to be the ideal place for those looking for a different Algarve, away from the hustle and bustle of the beaches.

About Albufeira
Albufeira is a former fishing town on Portugal's Algarve coast, with whitewashed old streets, sandy coves below red cliffs and a long summer season.
Albufeira was a fishing town under Moorish rule, its name coming from the Arabic for a lagoon, and its old town still climbs a hill above the water in a tangle of whitewashed alleys and arches. A tunnel leads down to the Fishermen's Beach, where boats once landed their catch, and the clock tower and parish church stand in the centre.
