September in the Algarve, is a good month for your holiday in Portugal, for either a beach based holiday or tour of the region.
Why visit the Algarve in September?
Algarve Housing will give you a few reasons:
Less crowded
September in the Algarve, is just after the height of the summer season, which lasts from June to August, and the resorts and facilities are still fully open but the entire region feels less crowded and hectic.
Less warm
The intense summer heat of the Algarve also decreases during September making it more pleasurable for touring, exploring and all adventure activities. The reduced heat and less intense sun make the Algarve much more suitable for families with young children or toddlers.
Lower prices
Visiting the Algarve in September is that the price of the holiday, mainly the cost of flights and accommodation, will be significantly less than in the summer season. There can be bargains in September even so close to the height of tourist season.
Weather in September
The weather of the Algarve in September reflects that of the weather in late spring. A typical day has over 10 hours of sun, reaching a maximum of 26-28°C while cooling to 17-19°C at night. Rain is very infrequent with an average of 2-3 days experiencing some rain per month.
