So where are the best places to live in Portugal? We have traveled through many areas of Portugal and fell in love with the Algarve. It has so much to offer, especially for those looking for a perfect place to retire or spend extended periods. Exploring from the east to the west coast we got a pretty good feel for what each city had to offer. We will discuss what we liked best about each location and the things we would consider negative. In the end, we will share with you our top three choices of where we could see living.

    I am in the Argarve right now....I love it here....I love the west coast as well...the waves...just amazing.

    Hello guys , nice!!, thank you for all of your great content, it would be interesting to see a video comparing Portugal and Spain for retiring , specially the south if Spain where you guys have spent some time, thanks again , you guys look great!
  • My family and I visited Lagos in July 2022. We really enjoyed the beaches, the restaurants, the towns and people. The Algarve is an outdoor paradise. ❤
  • @kcsnew
    Absolutely helpful videos on Portugal where to stay and ton of info on Algarve 👌
  • Thanks for this very helpful, comprehensive video! I have the impression from other videos I've seen elsewhere that Vila Real de Santo António has a fairly sizeable year-round expat population so the businesses don't shut down in winter like some other smaller towns may do. But I haven't been there in winter and could be mistaken.
  • @profeagayu
    I really appreciate this video. My wife and I are considering moving to the Algarve and this video has been the most helpful in gathering info and narrowing down our destination.
  • @elricko9077
    Yet another great video guys, you’re getting good at these 😜👍 Cheers 🍻
  • @patwong2764
    Thank you! Very helpful for our upcoming trip.

    I spent 10 days in Portugal this summer with my daughter and grandson. I'll be emigrating there next summer and have had relocation consultants working on my plan for about 6 months now. I loved Portimão and that museum (located in a former sardine cannery) is definitely not to be missed. We also went to Coimbra, Peniche, Ericeira, Lagos, Loulé, and Lisbon. I enjoyed everywhere we went! I am inclined toward the Algarve because it is warmer and I tend to be cold-natured. Thanks so much for this video. You have given me some ideas because I am not sure yet where I want to move first. I'll check out some of your other videos now that I have discovered your channel.
  • @newrytown1
