Portugal is a European favourite for its sandy beaches, dramatic scenery and world-class golf courses, as well as its 300 days of sunshine a year. The Algarve region has a dramatic coastline, and Madeira is known as the Floating Garden, with its flower-filled botanical gardens. Porto Santo is a newcomer to the travel scene, with its cobbled lanes, whitewashed houses and 10-kilometre-long sandy beach.
