Algarve: a beach resort, the Benagil caves and the islands of Ria Formosa
Seven nights on the beach in Albufeira, a boat to the golden Benagil cave and a full day among the lagoon islands — all arranged.
Your base is the 5★ Wine & Books by the Sea Algarve Resort in Albufeira, right on the beach. Sea-view rooms, indoor and outdoor pools, a spa with sauna, hammam and hydrotherapy, and tennis, sports and a kids' club on site. Half board: breakfasts and dinners included, and the booking is refundable.
From Faro airport, a private transfer: I meet you with a sign in the arrivals hall and get you to the hotel door in about an hour. The same in reverse for your flight home.
One day is the sea and the famous Benagil caves: a boat along the Algarve cliffs to the golden grotto with its skylight, with dolphin watching along the way. Your choice of an easy catamaran (bar and toilet aboard) or a livelier inflatable boat.
Another day, the islands of the Ria Formosa lagoon from Olhão: a full day among sandbars and bird-filled shallows, right through to sunset. Shared in a small group or as a private tour, just for you.
Flights I arrange separately, around the dates and times that suit you. Everything else is already in place; I stay in touch throughout.
