SUNNY TIMES ON YOUR PORTUGUESE SHORT BREAK
A boating holiday in Amieira on Grande Lago, in the Alentejo region of Portugal is a wonderful cruising experience. With no licence needed, you can sail here 365 days a year - even renting a boat at Christmas or on New Year's Day! The climate is sunny almost all year long, the water is extremely clean and clear and the region is rich in culture, gastronomy and history. What other reasons do you need to visit? Get ready for an exceptional boating holiday!
Your boat trip on the Lago Alqueva begins in Amieira, a typical village in the Alentejo region.

FEELING LIKE THE SWISS FAMILY ROBINSON
We loved bathing in warm and clear water, sailing without locks, and being able moor alone on an island - as if we were the Swiss Family Robinson! The children were delighted with their boating holiday.
