Alvor 26

Mid-January 2026 and I’m now back in Alvor after my Maroc trip. The weather here is rather cold and wet, but that seems to be the norm this year. Anyway, I got straight back into my daily routine of a morning beach run followed by a late second/third breakfast in the Plaza cafĂ©, during which I plan the rest of the day depending on the weather, tide, wind strength and direction. I still haven’t had the opportunity to get out on the wing foil – I’m a beginner and don’t want to risk going out when conditions are less than ideal. There are plenty of other options though : walking, cycling, paddle boarding and the latest discovery – e-foiling !

Walk along the cliffs towards Vau beach.
Took the Trek up to Monchique in the van and then rode part of the TET off road route.
