Everything Algarve is an independent guide to the Algarve region of southern Portugal — covering towns, beaches, villages, local businesses, guides for expats and visitors, and the latest regional news.
We built this site because we felt there was a gap for a truly comprehensive, well-organised resource about the Algarve that serves both people visiting for a week and people considering making it their home. The Algarve is one of Europe's most beautiful and liveable regions, and it deserves a guide that does it justice.
Our guides cover practical information — towns and their amenities, beaches rated and described honestly, local businesses with opening hours and contact details, and guides on topics like healthcare, schools, property and transport that matter to people making the move.
Everything Algarve is an independently run project with deep roots in the region. We're not a travel agency, we don't take payments for listings, and we don't write sponsored content disguised as editorial. What you read is our honest assessment.
If you spot something that needs updating, want to suggest a place we've missed, or have a question about the region, we'd love to hear from you. Head to our contact page and drop us a message.
If you run a business in the Algarve and would like to be listed, please get in touch — basic listings are free.
