September and October in the Algarve?

Why???Temperatures hover around 20 degrees (in the shade) and often hit the mid 30’s in the sun! Okay there might be an odd shower, and a overcast day, but you can bring your summer clothes!Beaches, bars and restaurants are less crowded, but still open and happy to welcome you with nice food, drinks and often live music!

As temperatures are lower then July and August, the climate is ideal to explore the Algarve! By, foot, mountain bike, canoe?!

And the nature is more green and beautiful, due to the better temperatures! And for a lot of birds it is migration time, lots of paces to visit to watch them.

And last but not least…. the rental prices are going down the first of September, and I have even better news for you, we have arranged some nice promotions for a variety of nice villas we rent!
