Hiya
I'm looking for a cheap week away around the 10th jan 07 and was wondering if anyone can tell me what to expect weather wise/things to do etc?? Will anywhere be open? Ive found 3* half board for £120 Bargain ......
Oh and will i be able to get away with wearing shorts/t-shirt in the day?
Any help much appreciated

On the homepage you'll see "history & almanac"; if you type in your proposed dates you can check the actual weather on those dates for past years.Generally speaking, although there are no guarantees at that time of year,you should get a few days at least in the week where it's warm enough for shorts, but it will turn chilly after sunset.
You don't say what resort you're going to, so it's difficult to give any idea of what will be open, but,again generally speaking, the bigger the resort, the more will be up-and-running; only in the very small and quiet resorts does tourism shut down completely for the winter. Hope this is of some help.
Thanks for your reply. We would be staying in Albufeira. I'm still a little worried about the weather!! Never been anywhere that early in the year so i cant even begin to imagine what to expect.
Obviously i dont expect hot hot hot but somewhere with spring like temps would be great....
Maybe Tenerife would be better but its just that i found a great price in Albufeira.

As for the weather, we were there for Christmas;the week was,unfortunately,rainy,but,on the three days that it didn't rain we were in shorts and short-sleeved tops(although our Portuguese friends who came to visit us were dressed for the Antarctic and thought we'd lost our minds !!)
We were in Lagos in January a couple of years ago and,again, had a few days when we wore shorts but even on the days that weren't sunny it was quite comfortable without coats.One thing's for certain - it'll be a lot warmer than home.
Seriously thinking of booking it now because same as u say its warmer than home!!! And at £120 half board ..... how can i say NO!!!!!!

Would you reccomend Lagos or Alb?
If you'd like to give some indication of your ages( p.m. me if you don't want to put it on the open forum)and the sort of holiday you enjoy, I promise I'll try to be as unbiased as possible and point you in the right direction.
