  • Best Time to Visit

    Portugal is a fantastic destination all year round, but the best time to visit depends on the kind of trip you're planning. Spring (March to May) brings mild temperatures, blooming landscapes, and fewer crowds — ideal for sightseeing and city breaks. Summer (June to August) is perfect for beach holidays, especially in the Algarve and on Madeira, with long sunny days and warm seas. Autumn (September to October) offers a sweet spot of sunshine and fewer tourists, making it great for exploring wine regions or coastal towns. Even in winter, Portugal stays relatively mild, especially in the south, making it a brilliant choice for a quieter escape.
