A study undertaken by BAV Consulting and Wharton School of Pennsylvania University with the consultancy of the company US News & World Report, has resulted in finding the Best Countries in the World. With Germany leading the ranking, Canada, UK and Sweden are next on the podium, Portugal is not too far behind, occupying position number 23 in the ranks.

As was predicted, in 2015 the Algarve region received an increase of 20.5 percent more French visitors between January and October. With visitors from the United Kingdom leading the chart, Spain, Germany, the Netherlands, Ireland and France are following close behind with a significant increase of tourists who visited the Algarve in 2015.

Until recently, Portugal had not been a well-known destination and attracted very few foreign visitors. Portugal remained largely undiscovered until the mid-1990s, when Europeans began immigrating en masse.

If you are on holiday in the Algarve or anywhere else in Portugal, be safe in the Sun. Don’t fool yourself – the sun does burn.
