About Algarve

The Algarve, in southern Portugal, is a unique place in the

world, thanks to its 150 kilometers of coastline overloo-
king the Atlantic Ocean. The region is the perfect blend of
nature and cultural heritage, and is one of the most touris-
tically developed in all of Europe.
Often hastily labeled as the region of mass tourism in Por-
tugal, the Algarve still offers the curious traveler numerous
opportunities for a vacation full of culture and nature.
Beautiful beaches of fine sand and crystal clear waters, 10th International Conference on the
