The months of May to September are best for a visit to the Portuguese mainland, although the Algarve still has above-average sunshine and is warmer than Germany even in the winter months. A wellness vacation with yoga is therefore also a welcome change in winter.

What is the climate like in winter in Portugal?
In winter, the climate in the north of the country is similar to ours. The further south you go, the milder the temperatures become. On sunny days in the Algarve, with a bit of luck, it can reach 20 degrees, just like in Madeira.
Can I go on a yoga vacation with children in Portugal?
With its impressive landscapes and beaches, Portugal is ideal for a family vacation with children. Some yoga retreats offer the option of childcare while you take part in a yoga or meditation session.
Who are yoga vacations in Portugal suitable for?
A yoga hotel in Portugal is appealing to anyone who wants to enjoy a relaxing time in nature combined with physical activity. Guests traveling alone, singles or even families will find something suitable among our offers. Yoga vacations can be combined with hiking, Ayurveda, fasting, surfing, meditation or detox, so the target group is large.
What are the best sights and excursion destinations in Portugal?
Coimbra, the former capital of Portugal, is now a university city well worth a visit. It is centrally located in the middle of Portugal on the River Mondego. Take a stroll through the narrow streets of the picturesque old town and discover important buildings from past centuries. The Alentejo, a region in southern Portugal, is home to cork oak forests, which provide the cork used to seal wine bottles. The plantations of gnarled cork oaks are very pretty to look at.
