Loulé

Its mild climate, natural beauty, golf courses and good hotels and restaurant facilities make the area a favorite destination for many in the warmer months. Its beautiful beaches stand out, many of them with the Blue Flag, as well as the famous Vilamoura Marina. The typical gastronomy of the area allows you to taste the famous cherry chicken, the "cabidela" rooster, the lamb leg in the pot, the wild boar with beans and, for dessert, the "xerém", the "cavacas" and the "carrasquinhas". The biggest festivity of the year is the famous Carnival of Loulé, which takes place over three days and attracts hundreds of people to the streets of the city.
