Albufeira Travel Guide: 416 reviews and 644 photos

Albufeira is a great tourist place in Algarve

Albufeira it isn't a monumental city but it has is own beauty.
Almost all the building are new (from last 20 years) but the centre, the old town have lots of years.
Usually the Hotels aren’t on centre but it is very easy to go in. It does worth. I love the old town lots of movement, shops, people, and music, day and night.
From Albufeira you can tour all Algarve, on bus, train or organize tour, there are plenty to do and even if you don’t like to stay on beach you won’t get bore.
For people how really like to be at the sun and water that is the place Albufeira Beach and near beaches are great.
There are a lots of water parks, and water sports.

    That Marine Zoo looks like a fun place - especially for kids! Great beach photos!
