It’s home to a population of about 11,000, made up of many Portuguese people and expats from across the world. This is the real Algarve—before tourism captured and transformed so much of this area. Living here is like stepping back in time…

Praia da Luz, Portugal | Portugal Special Report
Most folks don’t travel much further west than Lagos when they visit the Algarve, which is a shame. Some of the most spectacular beaches and prettiest towns are nestled along the furthest southwest and western Algarve coastlines. One such town is welcoming Praia da Luz, known for its excellent beachfront.
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.

Porto, Portugal | Portugal Special Report
When a region and a wine share the same name, you can imagine the passion involved in the product…
The history of this fabulous city—the second-most prominent in Portugal—is closer to that of an ensemble of small villages, its landscape formed by generations of seafaring and trade.
Some of the oldest parts of the city are being totally revamped, so it’s common to see infrastructure works underway as you walk the streets these days…
Although shrouded in resident fog that contrasts with the colorful people that live here, the gloom adds a sense of charm and mystery while simultaneously illuminating the city… it adds personality and creates harmony among the many villages that compose it.
With a broad mix of cultures and styles that can be seen from one street to another, it’s no surprise people have a strong sense of belonging to this special little piece of coastline.
Globally known for its exquisite port wine and surrounded by the enchanting Douro Valley (with a population of roughly 240,000 in the metropolitan area), this is Porto, Portugal.
