Things to do in Albufeira in 2025?
Here is the Portugal Rocks guide to all the things you can do in Albufeira.
Ok, so you've chosen your destination. Now to decide what to do at that destination. Ladies and gentlemen may I present to you the most fun place in Portugal. From chilling on the beach to going wild on the strip. Even dropping from the skies on the famous free fall for a good old dose of adrenaline, there is literally something for everyone and I'm going to tell you what.
Is Albufeira worth visiting?
It is a very simple answer if you're looking for sunshine, a short 2-and-a-half hour flight from the UK, golden beaches, vibrant culture, incredible nightlife, amazing food, watersports, golf and incredible countryside, then it is yes.
Let's start with the beaches. On the Algarve coastline, you have a variety of beautiful, cliff-lined beaches swarming with holidayers celebrating in true sunshine style. In Albufeira's new town (the strip side) you have the amazing Praia da Oura. This is the beach for the party crowd. Featuring a crystal-clear ocean, several places to eat and drink and little shops to get your beach essentials. If you take a wander up the hill towards the strip, you'll pass a subway, Italian, yet another shop and the one and only free fall. If you're also on the hunt for something refreshing to cool you down, you'll find a slush shack and ice cream hut on this road too.
Cheap things to do in Albufeira
Portugal is one of Europe's best-value countries, food, drink and activities are much cheaper than its neighbours.
If you fancy exploring and trying out another beach or three, head on down to Albufeira Old Town where you'll find Praia Azul, Inatel Beach and Old Town Beach.

Out at sea you can choose from the inflatable assault course, peddle boats or adrenaline junky activities. I'm sure you know what we're talking about here. Not to forget our boat parties!
