How It Works

Every morning, our algorithm analyses the day’s weather forecast and matches it against 300+ activities across the Algarve. Each activity is scored for the current conditions, then slotted into morning, afternoon and sunset time windows. The result: a personalised itinerary you can follow or mix-and-match.

More Things to Do

How are today's activities chosen?
Our algorithm analyses today's weather forecast — temperature, wind, rain and swell — and scores 300+ Algarve activities for current conditions. The best matches fill three time slots: morning, afternoon and sunset.
What if it rains today in the Algarve?
Rainy-day alternatives are built in. The planner automatically promotes indoor activities like wine tasting, castle visits and market tours when rain is forecast.
Do I need to book activities in advance?
In peak season (July–August), booking popular boat trips and Benagil tours 1–2 days ahead is wise. Off-season, most activities accept walk-ins.
What time do activities start?
Morning activities typically start between 9:00 and 10:00, afternoon slots run from 14:00 to 16:00, and sunset activities begin around 18:00–19:00 depending on the season.
