Portugal is a land of infinite options from mingling with the crowds in one of the more sophisticated beach resorts to wandering through the medieval quarters of historic cities like Lisbon, Porto, Braga or Coimbra. When it comes to sporting holidays Portugal is one of Europe's premier golfing destinations while the tennis schools are second-to-none. Big game fishing, horse riding, windsurfing and water-skiing are just some of the other activities on hand. Other unmissable experiences include Fado (Portugal's answer to soul music), country fairs where centuries-old folk traditions are lovingly re-enacted, port wine tastings and mouth-watering fish suppers. Portugal is a country ripe for discovery.
