Alqueva Tours & Activities | Book Your Adventure Online

Discover a hidden gem in the heart of Portugal, where tranquil waters and rolling hills create a truly unique atmosphere. Alqueva is renowned for its breathtaking lake, warm hospitality, and star-filled skies. It's the perfect place for anyone seeking peace, nature, and adventure, away from the usual tourist routes.

A Glimpse Into Its Past

Once a fertile valley, the region changed forever with the construction of the Alqueva dam in the early 2000s, creating the largest artificial lake in Western Europe. Today, it has become a vibrant destination, bringing new life and opportunities to the local communities.

When to Go

The best time to visit is spring or autumn. Temperatures are mild, nature is at its finest, and the lake is calm. Summer can be hot but perfect for water activities, while winter offers quieter experiences and cozy rural stays.

Is Alqueva suitable for families?

Absolutely. The region offers a wide range of family-friendly activities, from boat tours to stargazing and nature walks. Children and adults alike can enjoy safe and memorable moments together.
