Been to Albufeiria (spelling could be wrong) with the girlfriend, didn’t get much opportunity to get out
with the sole purpose of shooting photos.

That being said there are plenty of locals and building everywhere worth shooting.

You might get some good sunsets also

Went to Praia De Rocha a few years ago. Some fantastic coastlines in the Algarve.
Great scope for sunsets. Alvor is a old fishing village I think.

If your bringing kids go to Zoo Marine, great day out.

There is a pennisula at the end – I’m not sure of the name Lagos or something … anyway there’s a lighthouse and it can be very dramatic if you hire a car and can scoot around to find some different views of it

Other than that try the local markets for local colour and charachter ..
