There are many opportunities nearby for golf, horseriding, cycling and watersports activities. Horseriding lessons or treks can be booked at the 'Solear' stables that are located a short walk from the villa. Many beaches are accessible, to suit all tastes, just a short drive away, and range from easily accessible large expanses of golden sand to secluded rocky coves accessible only by steep steps.
Shopping opportunities exist in the local villages, towns and markets. There are also several shopping malls such as 'Algarve Shopping' that includes not only shops and restaurants, but also a cinema complex and 10 pin bowling. Pottery shops can be found alongside several main roads, and these sell everything from souvenirs, and glazed pottery to earthenware cooking pots. There are boat trips that can booked and will take you on a journey along the coastline, exploring many of the rocky caves, or from Portimao up the river Arade to the fortified town of Silves.
