August is here and its HOT in the Algarve, not just the soaking in the ocean kind of hot, but hot in things to do and see all month long. If you can handle the heat then there’s no shortage of places to eat, drink and be merry, in Europes little treasure. By day, work hard on your tan at one of forty plus eco-labeled awarded beaches, by night be moved by the hottest DJs on the planet, at one of the many beach parties. And if you’re looking for time off the beach, there’s no shortage festivals and what else – food!  So don’t miss a chance to experience rustic Portuguese cuisine across the region and take part in the seafood festivals throughout the month.
