Just after sunset, at
the attractive and well organized Marina of Vilamoura, much is
on on offer. With its fabulous marina, Vilamoura naturally offers all types of water sports, from day-long coastal cruises to deep-sea fishing, parasailing, sailing, water-skiing, jet skiing, scuba diving — you name it. But that's only the start. Vilamoura annually hosts a number of prestigious events, both amateur and professional, including boat shows, sailing regattas, the Almond Blossom cross-country World Championship, the Vilamoura Ladies Tennis Open, athletics, football matches, fairs, car shows, international Class A Show Jumping, cycling, and championship golf tournaments. Round the marina are in numerous shops, bars, and restaurants set along wide esplanades. The resort also has its own casino with night-club, which rivals in sophistication anything offered elsewhere in Europe. Further a field, you can enjoy cycle routes, horse riding, fitness, squash, bow shooting, volleyball, lawn bowls, mini-golf, and a wonderful natural walking environment. It's a place of fun and relaxation for the whole family, 365 days a year. For complete relaxation, Vilamoura is the place to be. Just a few minutes' stroll, and you're on a smooth, sandy beach that stretches far in either direction, gently washed by the waters of the Atlantic. The climate is everything you could wish for, with clear, deep blue skies and sunshine almost guaranteed. The Algarve is renowned for some of the world's finest championship golf courses and Vilamoura offers five of them all within the resort. All of 18 holes or more each superbly designed. These attract dedicated players and champions worldwide. Four of these courses were the first to be officially recognized for their dedication to preserving the environment. Each has its own driving range and a prestigious clubhouse and Vilamoura itself offers a dedicated golfing academy with full teaching facilities, a driving range and a 3-hole practice course to help all levels of players.
