Last week the temperatures have been high! One day I measured in the shade 37.4 degrees! Summer in the Algarve at the moment, so people who have been visiting the Algarve for holiday have been very lucky, and looking at the forecast, it seem to stay nice and sunny!
Lovely weather to visit one of the gorgeous beaches of the Algarve, play golf, or enjoy the beautiful nature of the Algarve by foot or mountain bike!
