Family holidays to Portugal

With beautiful, sandy beaches, super cool cities and heaps of history, family holidays to Portugal are like a giant treasure chest just waiting to be opened. Portugal is also one of Europe’s warmest countries, with plenty of sunshine year-round, so you can visit whenever you fancy a dose of Vitamin D.

And with plenty of short, direct flights from across the UK, getting to Portugal is quick and easy. In no time at all (or around 2.5 hours to be precise), you can be topping up your tan in the Algarve or quaffing yummy pasteis de nata in Lisbon! And away from the mainland, the island of Madeira offers a Portuguese-themed family holiday off the coast of North Africa.

Top family-friendly destinations in Portugal

Algarve

If your family holiday wishlist reads sunshine, beaches, ice cream and happy kids, then the Algarve has entered the chat. Build sandcastles at lively Praia da Rocha, or plonk yourself down on the soft sands of Praia da Marinha, a picture-perfect cove framed by gorgeous golden cliffs. Ready to give the beach a breather? Head to the historic town of Lagos for a boat trip and a bite at its buzzy marina. Then there’s Faro, with pretty old town streets just made for wandering, while Albufeira brings the party vibes with its bouncing bars, restaurants and nightlife.

Lisbon

Big city buzz meets laid-back beach break in the Portuguese capital of Lisbon – hands down one of the country’s best family-friendly destinations. Scoot down the promenade to check out the imposing Belem Tower, feed the lemurs at Badoca Safari Park and rattle through Lisbon’s oldest neighbourhoods on the vintage Tram 28, hopping off near major attractions. And when you fancy swapping sightseeing for sunbathing, the sandy shores of Carcavelos are just a half-hour drive away.

Madeira

Vibrant, lush and endlessly fascinating with lots of activities for kids and grown-ups to boot, Madeira is a top choice for an adventure-packed family holiday. We’re talking swimming in the gorgeous Porto Moniz lava pools, dolphin-spotting, riding cable cars, crawling through the caves of Sao Vicente and whizzing past locals on a Monte Sledge street toboggan. Boredom doesn’t stand a chance!
