"I would come here in the summer before you move. It is over flooded with tourists. I live in Albufeira and travel in the summer.

"The Algarve is a popular destination for expats, offering a relaxed lifestyle, beautiful beaches, and a warm climate. Before moving to the Algarve, it is important to research the cost of living, as it can be higher than other parts of Portugal. Additionally, expats should be aware that the Algarve is a tourist destination, and the local economy is heavily reliant on the tourism industry. It is also important to research the local healthcare system, as well as the availability of international schools. Finally, expats should be aware that the Algarve is a predominantly Catholic region, and it is important to respect local customs and traditions," remarked another expat who made the move to The Algarve, Portugal.
