The Algarve, Portugal | Portugal Special Report
Portugal’s Algarve region has a mild, almost Mediterranean climate, with over 300 days of sunshine a year, a beautiful coastline with 150 great sandy beaches, and it’s in one of the safest countries in the world, with friendly locals, great cuisine, fine local wines, and a low cost of living with easy residency options.
There are stunning beaches with soft golden sand, limestone caves, and grottoes only reachable by boat, and sparkling waters and tiny inlets with fishermen stood precariously on the edge of the cliff above, fishing for their dinner. It’s not all beaches, though. For nature lovers, there’s the Ria Formosa protected reserve, and for golf lovers, Europe’s finest championship golf courses are here.
This part of the world has a sense of timelessness that you notice as soon as you step away from the beachfront tourist areas. There’s a reason this is Live And Invest Overseas’ most sought-after region of all time… Discover the Algarve in this Portugal Special Report.

Eastern Algarve, Portugal | Overseas Haven Report
Retirement & Lifestyle, Portugal, Get Started, Overseas Haven ReportsEastern Algarve, Portugal | Overseas Haven Report
In this Overseas Haven report we explore East Algarve.
Because of the huge increase in tourism in Portugal, standard popular areas are getting crowded and expensive. Hence, the attention on this part of Portugal’s world-famous Algarve region. European expats have been moving here in droves, especially the British, and now an increasing American influx is being felt. This means an active, English-speaking expat community to plug into along with the lower cost of living, great weather, and outdoor activities on offer.
Eastern Algarve is perfect for those with a love of nature and the outdoors. The warm weather and laid-back life near the sea harkens to a slower time spent with friends and family enjoying the sunshine and outdoors. The pace is yours and can be dialed up or down as you like. If you’re ready to savor moments in the sun… discover a healthier lifestyle and food… find a safe place with an emphasis on family and friends… live a first-world life at third-world prices… make a good investment with the benefit of an EU passport… and do it all without a language barrier to start… you’ll find many options await you in eastern Algarve.

Portugal, VIP
Portugal Circle
If you’re dreaming of a new life in Europe… even for just a few months of the year…
Or if you ever thought about retiring to Europe but ruled it out as too expensive…
Then you owe it to yourself to keep that dream alive and check out the country we, at Live and Invest Overseas, have chosen as the world’s top retirement haven for eight years running…
Portugal is a country that has something to suit almost every taste and budget…
And I have big news on this understated corner of Europe to share with you today (including your 6-night stay in a top Algarve resort… on my dime)…
But first, let’s make sure we’re both on the same page…
So, when you dream about your new life overseas, does it include:
- Warm, sunny days most of the year? Portugal has over 300 days of sunshine a year, with mild winters. Whether you choose beach or city, you’re guaranteed plenty of days out of doors…
- An affordable lifestyle? For the sophisticated culture and fine dining on offer, Portugal has some of the lowest living costs in Europe. You could live well here—without scrimping on luxuries—from US$2,200 a month. Dinner for two with wine costs as little as US$35. Or pull a good bottle of wine from the supermarket shelf for just US$5 …
- A safe place? The Global Peace Index ranked Portugal the 3rd safest country in the world in 2019. It’s a politically neutral country without civil unrest…
- A healthy way of life? Almost every expat I meet here tells me they live a healthier lifestyle by default. They’re taking their dogs for long walks on the beach… or ditching the car to go about their business on foot. You have an abundance of fresh fish and locally-grown fruit and vegetables to feast on, too…
- Access to world-class beaches? The Algarve has 100 miles of coast… not all known to tourists. Many of its beaches fly the prestigious “Blue Flag”—Europe’s gold standard in cleanliness…
- An English-speaking community? Thanks to its centuries-long history with Britain, English is widely spoken in Portugal—especially in the Algarve and the main cities. You won’t have to spend hours studying Portuguese grammar to get settled in. You’ll also have the support of established expat circles whenever you need them…
- Easy to reach from North America? You can fly direct to Lisbon from the U.S. east coast in as little as six hours… or seven hours from Toronto…
- Easy residency? Residency here is one of the easiest you’ll find in Europe. You can qualify for a passive income residency visa (D7) by showing an income of around US$9,000 a year… or US$13,500 a year for a couple…
- Quality health care? The World Health Organisation ranks Portugal 12th in the world for its standard of healthcare. You can see a local GP for as little as US$6. What’s more, you’ll find English-speaking doctors and consultants in major clinics and hospitals…
- A rich history and culture? Portugal has no shortage of historic cities and towns, including impressive castles, cathedrals, and Roman sites. In Lisbon and Porto, you could have a full social calendar that includes concerts, theatre, art shows, music festivals, and almost any kind of entertainment you might wish for…
- Adventure? From its fishing villages to its natural reserves, historic cities to wild coastal walks, there’s lots of adventure to be had on the ground in Portugal. And, you’re also in an ideal position to explore the rest of Europe by car, rail or air…
- Affordable property? Portugal is emerging as “the California of Europe,” but prices here are a fraction of what you’d pay for a beach property in southern California. Algarve property prices are an average US$2,830 a square meter (an incredible bargain compared with Santa Monica or Venice Beach)…
Really, I’m just scratching the surface here. There’s so much more to discover.
But if your retirement wish-list includes at least three of the above criteria, then I’d say you’re in the right place…
Remember, though, Portugal is a big place… with many great options to choose from…

Luz wraps itself around a picturesque sandy bay and was originally a small fishing village. It’s located in the western Algarve, one hour west of Faro airport. Sandwiched between the towns of Lagos (6 kms) and Burgau (5 kms), it’s ideally situated for exploring the region’s best sights.
