Portugal's southern province of Algarve was the last area regained from the Moors by the Portuguese king in 1292, and Moorish architecture is still a prominent feature of the Algarve. This colourful region is dotted with picturesque inland villages, set among orange groves and almond trees, in contrast to the sophisticated resorts along miles of magnificent beaches and secluded coves protected by sea cliffs. The Algarve's excellent year-round climate is ideal for water sports, tennis and especially golf, with many international championship courses, designed to make the most of their beautiful settings.
