GO-KARTING - at Almancil (just 15 minutes away) there is located one of the best family go-karting facilities you will come across. There is a small course for younger children and larger course for the older "children" (which in this respect should be construed as including the fathers and grandfathers too).

Shopping & Dining Out
ALGARVE SHOPPING - this is a major, recently built, shopping centre on the main EN125 road, just 10 minutes away, and includes most of the types of shops you can think of plus a cinema, bowling alley, and over 40 restaurants and cafes.
The restaurants, cafes and bars in the Algarve are too numerous to mention but cater for all tastes and styles. The Portuguese are renowned for the welcome they give to families as well as those without children. In our opinion it is difficult to find a bad meal in the Algarve. The night-life of Vilamoura and Albufeira is on hand for discos, bars and clubs. For the younger adults the Kadok disco is 10 minutes away by car.
