Currently there are 3 threads doing the rounds regarding The Algarve.
All cover similar ground & are largely given over to whinges.
Unfortunately, all 3 lack factual information so to try to get the wheels back on this wagon, this thread invites all with actual experiences to share them.
Then subsequent discussions have some basis.
Questions to start the ball rolling:
If you are in an Algarve marina is it fuller than last year & are the prices the same (or higher/lower)?
Are the anchorages & particularly the Guadiana fuller than previous years?
Is the cost of living increasing & how does it compare with ‘back home’?
Is the continuing civil unrest having any impact on you?
And for the sake of completeness; how you had any dealings (good or bad) with the Portuguese Maritime Authorities in the last 12 months? (only factual first had experiences on this one please).
