Why You Should Take a Flight to Albufeira
This once quaint fishing village has transformed into a major tourist centre over the last few decades, with excellent links to some of the best beaches in Portugal. But, at its heart, you can still find the cobbled streets and Moorish influences that drew visitors in the first place. The town is also well known as a gastronomic capital, specialising in exquisite seafood.
