Portugal - "" Provincial Painting Europe "", favorite place for measured, respectable rest to the standard beauties of tourists


Tourist season in Portugal

Portugal is perhaps the most attractive European country for environmentally friendly holidays. Magnificent climate, scenic landscapes, flawless beaches marked by the blue flag for higher quality Water and landscape of coastal zones, the abundance of unique antiquities, delicious kitchen, good-quality shopping - all this annually attracts to 10,000,000 tourists every year. Such impressive figures give grounds for the withdrawal that Portugal with its Azores and archipelago of Madeira takes 5th place in Europe in terms of the volume of turmpotok. However, it inherent in the measured, rigid rest is available only to real gourmets with income "above average", as a rule, who have already ever-seeing many countries, and now seeking something in Europe infends and very interesting. Therefore, there is no high demand for this tourist destination among Russians.

High season

The largest number of Portuguese admirers come to the country in the summer, when there is a moderately hot weather, faithful and swimming in the waters of the Atlantic, and to participate in a variety of excursion programs. Two weeks of the new year also belong to the high season. Travelers are booked by travelings both on the continental part of the country and on the island of Madeira, where they rest all over the year due to its warm climate. By the way, here in February there is a lush carnival, so the air tickets are bought out for a few months. Portugal is visited by travelers absolutely from different corners world but on this moment Tourists from Britain leading (Queen of England loves Portugal), America, Canada, Holland and Germany. In Portugal, there is never a pile, even in the midst of summer. Russians in high season are quite small. The lack of regular direct flights affects.

Low season

The low season in Portugal falls for the period from November to the last few April, with the exception of festive and religious weeks. Thanks warm climate, which is considered one of the most favorable in Europe, can be rest in this country even in winter. And Madeira is generally considered a year-round resort, but more suitable for ecological tourism, since good beaches There is practically no. The main advantage low season There are very affordable prices for accommodation, excursions and food in restaurants. So, the same room in the hotel in the winter will cost about two times cheaper. Prices and SPA procedures are reduced. Therefore, if the cultural and historical heritage of Portugal and its gastronomy is more important for you than beach rest, Which, in principle, can be replaced with a luxurious heated pool, do not lose time and book the tour now.

Beach season in Portugal

In mid-April, the beach season opens. The sun's rays at the midday clock are already pregnant, but at the same time they are quite safe. Having patient, you can get a wonderful tan.

Previously, the bathing season is beginning on Madeira, since by the mid-end of May, the ocean coastal waters warm up to +20 ° C..21 ° C. In general, for many Portugal will seem not quite a suitable beach holiday destination, because maximum temperature Waters, usually achieved at all resorts of its continental part, does not exceed +20 ° C under the influence of a cold canary flow passing along the Western shores. In addition, the cool wind is constantly blowing along the whole coast, because of the battery, it becomes pretty zyabko after swimming. Well, if the desire to combine the excursion program with a beach holiday Veliko (after all, summer!), It is better to give preference southern resorts Or the Madeira archipelago, where the maximum temperature mark of water for the season is approximately +23 ° C.

Velvet season in Portugal

The velvet season coming in Portugal for September is the concept of relative, as the ocean significantly cools the perception of sufficiently high for this time of the year temperatures.

At the beginning of autumn, the tours on the southern coast of the country, the province of Algarve, or Madeira, are mainly booking. In October, the ocean does not quite cool -19 ° C. + 20 ° C, but the frequent rain and cold evenings can completely destroy hope for a full-fledged beach holiday, so we advise you not to risk and planning the relevant rest for more favorable months.

Windsurfing season

The extended coastline of the Atlantic Ocean, rarely happening completely calm, is amazing for the occupation of all types of surfing. Enough low pricesSafe underwater world, beautiful surf spots and professional instructors, and most importantly - great weather During the year, I turned Portugal to one of the main centers of European surfing.

In winter, Australians over "powerful pipes" flock on the coast, and in the summer - residents of the northern part of Spain in search of a moderate wave. The only minus of local windsurfing is that in winter the water temperature does not exceed +14 ° C. + 15 ° C, but the special costume saves the situation. Instructors themselves say that the best conditions for windsurfing - the period from May to November, however, those who feel confidently on large wavesMore expedient to prefer September - November and February - April.
