Portugal
There’s a corner of Portugal where the coastline seems carved by flame and salt. Limestone cliffs drop into sapphire seas, towns glow with whitewashed warmth, and fishermen haul in the morning’s catch just steps from your table. You can start west, where Lagos pulses with sun and surf, then curve east to where the Atlantic warms and vineyards pour a slower kind of gold. Along the way you’ll see secret beaches, an open-air cinema right where you stay, orange groves, and more stories than you’ll have time to hear.
Completely customisable for you
Lagos celebrates water. The cliffs here are sculpted by wind and tide, the beaches wide and wild, and the people proud of both. Walk the coastal paths, kayak into the grottoes, or stop for grilled sardines at a beach shack with nothing on the menu but what the boat just brought in.
Not everything here is shoreline. The hinterlands pulse with vines and orchards, where lunch might be a homemade stew served under fig trees. The Monchique hills offer hiking with horizon views and thermal springs known for turning long days into better nights.
East of Faro, everything shifts. Tavira’s rooftops shimmer like fish scales, and the ferries that leave here take you to places where the beaches stretch for miles and the only footsteps are yours. You might land on Ilha de Tavira or wander the trails of Ria Formosa Natural Park, but the feeling is the same: you’ve found something you didn’t know you needed.
Sun in your skin, yes. But also a sense of having been somewhere rich in feeling through every plate, every view, every breeze that came in from the Atlantic. The Algarve is more than a place to unwind. It’s a place that fills you up.
There’s something about stays that make you want to linger. With Footprint, you can stay at a London townhouse where the city runs just beyond your window. A lodge in the Scottish Highlands where the fireplace is always lit. A suite in New York where room service feels like a restaurant reservation. The right stay isn’t just where you rest— it’s where the experience begins.
