Watch the kitesurfers on an Algarve villa holiday

According to Portugal News, the area has become a popular site for kitesurfing enthusiasts because it provides the ideal conditions for the sport.

Indeed, pleasant temperatures, shallow waters and a constant breeze make it the perfect spot, according to those who take part.

Kitesurfing is becoming an increasingly common holiday pastime in the Algarve, with schools popping up across the region.

Families relaxing on Faro beach will be able to watch as numerous kitesurfers perform exciting tricks in the water.

Holidaymakers who fancy spending time on the beach in Faro could rent an Algarve villa in the market town of Sao Bras.

It is located in the hills north of Faro, so the coast is easy to get to, but since it is also surrounded by beautiful countryside it offers tourists the best of both worlds.
