A study cared by Imovirtual reveals that the best parishes to live in the Algarve are Lagoa and Carvoeiro, and safety is one of the aspects most appreciated by the respondents. On the opposite side, the three parishes with lower scores are Olhão, Quelfes and Alvor. These are the conclusions of an online questionnaire, conducted between April and September of 2018, to residents in the national territory with the purpose of objectively assessing their expectations about the quality of life in the different parishes of the country.

Well, we made it into 2021 – it’s been quite a ride, but here we are. I’d like to begin by wishing all my readers and clients a very happy and prosperous New Year. And as the temperature plummets, what rays of sunshine can we see for the coming year that can give us cheer until the warmer weather arrives?

A new campaign has been launched by the Algarve tourism board to encourage national and international tourists to choose the region as this year’s summer holiday destination.
