Creative Tourism

Creative Tourism

If you’re looking for a holiday that is full of meaning and feeling, if what you seek is interaction and involvement with local people and traditions, if innovation is also part of your requirements, if you’re searching for personal transformation and creative self-expression, the Algarve is the right destination for you.

Immerse yourself in local culture and give your creativity a boost. There is no shortage of activities to fulfil your wish to learn and experiment. You can mould clay under the guidance of a potter, weave cane or palm leaves to create baskets or other utensils, learn how to make a dish that is typical of the region’s cuisine, recreate a parapet that is such a typical feature of traditional architecture, or even complete an artistic residency.
