Algarve Villa Rentals - Luxury Holiday Villas

If you are planning to holiday in the Algarve, then you are in for a culinary adventure. The Algarve is a blessed region with many local markets offering the freshest choice of local fruits, vegetables, and seafood. Southern Portugal boasts of having over 300 sunny days a year, and all that beautiful solar energy shows itself well in the colours of the local fruit and vegetables. Figs, oranges, almonds, melons, tomatoes, sweet potatoes and avocados are just a few local products that grow exceedingly well in this climate. The Atlantic Sea waters provide the Algarve with an array of beautiful fish and seafood. The local Sea bass and Bream varieties are just a few of the local fish that abound in local markets and restaurants. Some of the finest oysters in the world are actually farmed in Sagres, though they can be tricky to attain as they are shipped off to France for a higher market value.
