Holidays in Portugal: Beautiful beaches and cool cities

Book a holiday to Portugal with confidence at The Co-operative Travel.  Portugal, one of Europe’s smallest countries, is one of the most popular holiday destinations with British tourists, who keep coming back for more.

The southernmost region of Portugal, the Algarve, is perhaps the most familiar part of Portugal to holidaymakers.  With 200 kilometres of Atlantic coastline, the area has hundreds of beautiful sandy white beaches to choose from, quaint villages and breathtaking scenery.  Its hot dry summers and warm winters make it the perfect holiday destination all year round.

If you fancy a more action-packed holiday, your holiday to the Algarve won’t disappoint.  There are plenty of watersport activities to thrill you and the Algarve is of course home to some of the world’s most famous golf courses.  Lively resorts such as Albufeira will keep you entertained both day and night with great restaurants and bars in abundance.  The Algarve is also home to four large waterparks, which will keep your little ones entertained for hours.

Lisbon, one of Europe’s coolest capitals is both historic and elegant.  It makes the perfect city break, being the only European capital with Atlantic beaches.   Find out more about Lisbon and other city breaks with The Co-operative Travel.

A Portugal holiday has even more to offer than sun, sea and sand or great city breaks.  Why not explore the botanical gardens on the beautiful island of Madeira or spot whales in the Azores.  Whatever takes your fancy, The Co-operative Travel has some great summer and winter sun holiday deals to Portugal.
