Conil and the Algarve



We are now enjoying the sun and rest of Monte Naturista do Barao where we have stopped a couple of years ago. This is the first real sunny and windless days we have had for a long time and it is lovely. We have arrived in time to join the weekly joint meal with everyone else on the site. It is very busy this time with three other Brit couples and lots of Dutch.

Since Morocco, we have spent time in Conil de la Frontera from where we managed another cycle ride. We hope to cycle from here as well. After a few nights there where we had wifi in the van we moved along the Algarve to mixed weather and some changes to the possiblilities of wild camping in one or two of the towns. And just two decent cycle rides.

And then the drive north via Vila do Milafontes, a wonderful sandy spot, and Porto Covo, a gem on the coast with an amazing mini mercardo with a wine list of amazing quality situated on a small side road of the town.

We are hoping to get some sun warmth in the next few days and then try a cycle tour for a few days staying away from the site. We seem to have stopped taking so many photos so you might not get so many or of the same quality.
