About Alentejo

Alentejo is a synonym of endless plains, fantastic beaches, unique cuisine, to see and live and savor.

The Alentejo, stretching from the banks of the River Tejo to the mountains that surround the Algarve, is the heartland of Portugal.

These coastal plains and marble hills have inspired countless epic tales and adventures, with the Phoenicians, Celts, Romans, and Moors each leaving their mark on the unique local culture.

Discover both bliss and thrills in the rolling plains and mountains with their blue rivers, pristine beaches, and villages painted in white and blue. Enjoy local wines and cuisine that are unlike anything else. This is cork country and the cork trees turn the flowing plains of the Alentejo into a romantic and enchanting place of sun and shadows.

This is home to miles of sandy Atlantic beaches to explore. Here too you find the largest cork forests in the world, some of the best olives, pottery towns, and walled hilltop towns with castles dressed in marble. The name Alentejo comes from the Portuguese words Ale´m and Tejo, meaning beyond the River Tejo.

This is almost a third of Portugal and is less than an hour from Lisbon. Go beyond the Tejo and discover a whole other world: The Alentejo.
