Last minute holidays to Albufeira

Party on the stripThe 18-to-30 crowd makes tracks for the main strip each weekend. Expect a full house of cocktail lounges, Irish bars, jazz clubs and karaoke haunts.Go on a church crawl

Churches decorate the squares of Albufeira old town. Sant’Ana showcases 18th-century architecture in miniature. Misericordia, meanwhile, was once a mosque. Then there’s the Parish Church, where a skyscraping bell tower serves up cinematic views over Albufeira and the Atlantic.

Cruise the Costa AlgarveLoads of boat trips kick off from Albufeira. Some pace the resident dolphins and seahorses, while others salute the sunset with a Champagne cocktail.Rocket around the countryside

Pocket-sized villages, winding rivers, orange groves and country lanes knit the Algarve countryside. The most exciting way to see it all? Via a hold-on-to-your-hats jeep tour. You usually get a stop at a vineyard or artisan’s workshop.
