View of the sandy beach and the rocky bay of Bordeira

To all the sun worshippers, Portugal fans and summer lovers among our guests – we have good news for you! Because you have just found your dream holiday! Cycle from the pulsating metropolis of Lisbon along the Atlantic coast, past breathtaking beaches and dreamy fishing villages – with your gaze always directed towards the magnificent sea. Of course, the necessary portion of sun should not be missing on a dream cycle tour in southern Portugal. It isn’t either – Portugal is one of the sunniest parts of Europe! Get on your bike and head south for a cycle tour on the Portuguese west coast!

Costa da Caparica, Setúbal, Vila Nova de Mil Fontes… no this is not a Portuguese poem, it’s your stage locations. During this eight-day cycle tour to the Algarve, the prettiest villages, secluded bays and countless delicacies will cross your path. We also promise you unique views of the vast ocean.

  • Sunshine all year round: Portugal, and especially the Algarve, are among the sunniest areas in Europe. The light breeze, which can be felt almost permanently, always keeps the temperatures within a normal range! Wonderful cycling weather!
  • Pastéis de Belem: Addictive sweets! Anyone who has ever tried the puff pastry tart with custard filling will certainly not leave with having had just one! Don’t have a guilty conscience! Tomorrow you’ll hope back on your bike and kick the calories down again.
  • Mercado Do Livramente: One of the most famous fish markets in the world will amaze you. The market in Setúbal is really impressive – everything that lives in the ocean is on sale here! Do not miss it!
  • Cape St. Vincent: Have you always wanted to say that you cycled to the most south-westerly point of Europe? We give you the opportunity to do so! The lighthouse is just spectacular!

Your seven-day cycling adventure along Portugal’s impressive Atlantic coast begins in the incredibly charming capital of Lisbon. From there you cycle about 300 kilometres south, with the destination ‘Algarve’ in mind. Flat stages between 40 and 70 km with a few climbs will not be a problem for the regular cyclists among you. Look forward to sunny days of cycling, a light sea breeze that tousles your hair and the most delicious fish dishes you have ever tried!

A beautiful cycle path takes you along the river Tejo all the way to the harbour. After a short ferry ride across the wide river you reach Seixal and start your cycle tour. You cross the peninsula southward and marvel at the Arrábida nature park with initial impressive rock formations. Breathtaking views over the coastline take turns nearly by the minute with beautiful bays for swimming and sunbathing.  Today’s Day Finish is Setúbal, where as early as the 16th century Lisbon aristocracy had palaces and country estates built there.

Hotel (example): Cristal

In the morning you take the ferry through the nature reserve at the Sado estuary. With a bit of luck you might even spot some dolphins during the crossing. The stage starts on Troia-peninsula with its beautiful beaches and special sceneries. This is why you are probably puzzled by the rice fields, which you would not expect in this region – definitely a special sight. You continue past the glorious sandy beaches featuring crystal-clear water, past flower fields and lush green wine growing areas. Characteristic and particularly charming are here also the villages with their whitewashed houses. In Sines you stroll along the promenade, visit the castle or enjoy the slow-paced ado in the town.

Hotel (example): Hotel Veleiro

There are only a few kilometres left until you reach Sagres. Your final Day Finish with its ample cultural heritage is one of the most significant towns on the Algarve.
