Besides the presentation of the Porsche Cayman, which was held last March for international press in the region encountered as well the 47th Annual Scientific Meeting of the European Society for Clinical Investigation and the second annual conference EPICONCEP “Epigenetics and periconception given Environment “. And to talk about The Algarve is like talking about the delegate class that monopolized the best ratings ever.
The region has awards, including the the World Travel Awards 2012, which distinguished the region as the “Best Beach Destination Europe” and “Best Golf Destination Portugal” and in Today´s Golfer Travel Awards 2013, the Algarve won the “Best Value for Money Golf Destination of Continental Europe” award.
Golf among fishing villages
A plus in the area is golf : Since the famous golfer Sir Henry Cotton instituted the Algarve as a destination for golf and designed many of its fields 60 years ago, the region has been a mecca for lovers of this sport . It has 30 fields , six of them international , such as Henry Cotton , Rocky Roquemore or Arnold Palmer, declared ´ Best Golf Destination ´ by Golf Digest, and several golf academies include custom programs.
Take your group to one of the camps that offer master classes or tournaments , enlivened by a tasting of wines from the region. The David Leadbetter Pestana Carvoeiro Golf Resort , Vilamoura or the Supergolf in the Barringtons in Vale do Lob propose such programs .
And if Vilamoura is simply a paradise for golfers with its six international fields , Western Algarve is a picturesque land of sailors and explorers with crowded ports and fishing villages.
Clearly soloed with beach and golf Algarve would not come to capture 52% of the national tourism … the region has much more : history, environment, ecology, good food and infrastructure.
