Whats the visitor numbers like in Carvoeiro

Post by dakar »

Folks,

We are out for our twice annual visit in a weeks time.

Can readers give us a flavour of the tourist numbers and if there are any positive signs of them
increasing. Get the impression that the season has yet to "kick into swing". Hope it will soon.

well having been here for just under a week, it´s just ticking over but we have known it a lot busier than this around this time of year. Temperature is lovely, bars not too crowded. entertainment in the square started up so that keeps people drinking in the bars, which is good for business. Talking with some of the bar and resturant owners they are holding thier own as we say, which is always good to hear :D

We've just got back from a fortnight in Turkey and I would say the same as Gaynor . . . without the spelling mistakes. :P

I reckon May is too soon to make a judgment. June will be a better guide.

Arrived 1st June and found our regular haunts quieter than normal................but then again here on our own and not with our squad! Downturn overall and exchange rate? Won't stop Alibali and I having fun. So happy that this "working from home" extends to Algarve!!

Keeping off topic:-
On QI Stephen Fry tries to explain why the spelling rule 'I before E except after C' doesn't really work.
