Holidays, Why go to Portugal?
The
Atlantic Ocean beaches are more temperamental in the north and more docile in
the south. Choose the cities by the sea for a cosmopolitan and captivating
atmosphere. Some of them, like Lisbon and Porto, are divided between the river
and the ocean. Great rivers that cross the country like the Douro are guardian
to appetizing tastes, traditions and wine and offer an array of beautiful
scenery that is worth the trip.
Take
advantage of Madeira’s balmy weather conditions and the variety of sports
opportunities available all year round, and make sure to make the most of the
natural treasures.
Whichever
Portugal attractions you are looking forward to discovering on your Portuguese
holiday, our travel experts are on hand to create your dream holiday.

Weather in

Mainland
Portugal - The climate in Portugal varies considerably from one region to
another and is influenced by the relief, latitude and proximity to the sea,
which offers mild winters, especially in the Algarve. In the Porto e Norte area
and Beiras region, particularly inland, nearer Spain, the winters are colder,
although the temperatures are still mild when compared to the rest of Europe.
The
subtropical characteristics of the weather in the Madeira Archipelago can be
explained by its geographical position and mountainous relief. The climate in
Madeira is exceptionally mild, with average temperatures varying between 24 ºC
in summer and 19 ºC in winter
