Hello all...

Have any of you been to Portugal in October? How is it weather wise? Flights seam reasonable just wonder if it is worth considering.

Thanks

Ditto the above.

Could be my first ever time to Portugal so any advice would be apreciated

I am going to Tavira in October and have had a look at the weather for then it seems the Max Temp is 23c=73f, Min Tem is 14c=57f with about 7 hours of sun. sea temp is 20c but there could be 8 days of rain just hope its not the days we are there.

Well its here bag is packed, when I get up in the morning at 4am we are off, all that waiting, new shirts and tee shirts new beach towel, sorting out my restaurant list, sending Thomson Holidays a e mail about the June 27th strike and getting no reply so still don't know if we indeed will get there.
If I do get there I will put a few reports up if I can find some free wifi, will look in one 4 the road when the quiz is on one night, I could be the only one in Albufeira as no one else round here seems to be going this week.
So I may be back on Thursday night or it could be in two weeks or even the odd post now and then, but one thing is for sure I will have a great time with lots of good food and plenty of Portuguese wine one or two beers and may be even a song on the Karaoke.

Full hotel and resort report when I get back.

Dave.

Have a great time, Dave!

Well I am on the plane now we are on they say we have a one hour delay. Could have stayed in the cafe

Well we made it we are Sat round the pool it is nice and hot went to agenda do David first night had nice meal, house Wight only three euros half bottle not many in but it was good food. Last night we tried O Zucos I had pork and clams very nice but Mrs Holidaymaker had Hake not very good not sure if was game, going to give three crowns a go tonight. Done on my Kindle puts its own words it,soon

So that's another Lazy day round the pool it has been very warm.We went to the three crowns last night the setting is lovely we had a table overlooking the sea and a chicken and seafood cataplana that was so nice service was good other people's food looked nice as well. Tonight we are going to O Borg"o

Three Crowns (or Tres Coroas) is one of our favourites. Have you tried Casa da Fonte, near the steps? Similar food, and nice setting under the lemon tree.

I don't know O Borg"o - is it your Kindle playing up again?!

Cabana Fresca at Fishermen's Beach is excellent, although more expensive.

Glad the weather has now settled into hot hot hot! Keep the reports coming

I "winter" in Portugal from Oct to May and have done for the past 6 years. Generally the October weather is in the mid 20s and dry. The further west you are there is a greater likelihood of windy weather. I go to Praia da Luz which is in the west and the breeze is something I like

Roseweb, it should be George in Portuguese the one above Pingo Dose across from Brisa Sol apartments, were we are staying. Still having a nice time noticed Perry doing his quiz the other night as we went home.

well I am back, we had a great time, meet some nice people had some great food and lots of beer, wine, sangria and a few cocktails. May be a few weeks before I put up any reports as we are moving house on Friday so will have a lot to do to sort it out. Broadband will not be on till Tuesday, but we are looking forward to our next holiday to Tavira in 12 weeks. Roll on.

Glad you had a good time Dave good luck with your move & see you back on here soon
