The Alentejo is the ideal place for a peaceful getaway. Although the region is big, expanding from the Spanish border to the Atlantic Ocean, it is the least populated part of Portugal. Come and experience life in rural Portugal, with its excellent surfing beaches, fishing villages, the beautiful fortified village of Monsaraz and the suberb small city or Evora. Whether by bike or on foot, Alentejo will put you under its calming spell and guarantee a truly relaxing holiday.
