We visited Praia do Vau in Portimão on Friday late afternoon, and although we are already halfway through October, it still felt like summer in the Algarve.

There were still plenty of people enjoying the beach, some relaxing on the sand and others making the most of the sunshine. Café Pai Tomás, just above the beach, was also full of people enjoying drinks and the beautiful sea views.
The temperature was expected to reach around 28°C in Portimão, making it another beautiful October day.
While October already feels like autumn in many other places, here in the Algarve we can still enjoy afternoons at the beach, sit outside at cafés and make the most of the lovely weather.

And judging by how many people were still at Praia do Vau, we certainly weren't the only ones enjoying it.
