Location

The Algarve is one of the most popular and cosmopolitan regions of Portugal, with a wealth of attractions, from superb beaches and dramatic scenery to some of the best golf courses and marinas in Europe. The sophisticated, contemporary Algarve perfectly complements the older, more traditional feel of this historic region, which still retains much of its distinctive charm.

With 200 km of spectacular coastline, the best beaches in Europe, over 30 top golf courses, an established tourist infrastructure, a diverse landscape, great food and wine, and a genuinely warm welcome, the Algarve is an ideal area to purchase a second home. 

Gramacho is close to Carvoeiro and Ferragudo, two of the most picturesque villages in the Algarve with fantastic beaches and pretty harbours.
