Spring is such an amazing time of year as new growth and life bursts on the scene and this year is no exception. The spring flowers in the Algarve have just been so spectacular and even this week I have stumbled upon fritilleries and serapias when least expected. The group walking in the Cape St Vincent Natural Park have not only had an amazing floral display but have also been treated to fantastic aerobatic displays from storks on the cliff tops while from their hotel balconies they watched dolphins in the sea at Sagres.
Clients walking part of the Algarve Way came face to face with a large stag - hunters had told me that there were deer in remote parts of the Algarve but I never really believed them until now!
Those that say the Algarve is overdeveloped must have never stepped outside their tourist development - their loss!
