🐟Exploring from a new hilltop for a few days, seeking out glassy pools and secret swim spots, fresh as you like seafood with some unexpected wildlife thrown in.🦓
Just an hour from the Algarve, Paraiso Escondido literally is a hidden paradise and the perfect place for anyone looking for luxury whilst exploring the 60km or so of unknown and unspoilt coast between Aljezur and Porto Covo.
Ideally, you need at least 3 nights as there is so much to explore on the coast and through the valleys but it’s also an ideal stepping stone when hopping up the west coast to Lisbon. @paraiso_escondido #algarve #alentejo #portugal #explore #snorkle #freedive #ocean #travel

💪As often I’m a little late to the party but here’s to World Running Day yesterday:)
Having run for over half my life, I can vouch for the tremendous effect it’s had both physically and mentally. Here I share just a few.
Originally I ran for weight loss. I was over 90kg and built up distance with time so I could eventually run 3 miles slowly.
After more than 20 years it still brightens my mood, improves my fitness, gives me more energy and helps control my weight and sleep.
I love exploring and being in nature, following new trails, watching how landscapes change as the light shifts and the seasons pass.
Running tunes out the negatives of everyday life and like a moving meditation, nurtures the positives and improves your outlook – on everything. On days I run I am heaps more productive, am in a much better mood and similar to coffee, I’m much nicer after I’ve had one.
It’s simple, time efficient and free. This year I have been experimenting with shorter, faster, runs - not more than 25 minutes. This fits into a busy schedule and has huge benefits to the cardiovascular system, builds fast twitch muscle and increases strength and power.
My advice to new runners….Like anything start very slow, build it up and keep it consistent.
And if you don’t like it, don’t do it. Find something else.
Make arrangements to try something new this week - whether it’s a new class, a new activity on the water or simply getting back on your bike.
Remember, late to the start but never too late to start.🙌 #run #portugal #algarve #explore #runnersworld #travel #activeholiday #burgau #running #runnersofinstagram #active

☀️We love it when guests return. It means we`re doing something right🌷
This week Alison Goodwin with her league of lovable ladies returned for Alison`s May retreat.
As well as being a totally inspiring yoga teacher, Alison holds the secret recipe for effortlessly putting everyone at ease, making everybody welcome and everything easy going. She`s also an awesome chef. There was a fair bit of hiking, biking, beaching and drinking different colour wines. Some not so serious yoga happened in between…..🧘♀️#algarve #yoga #retreat #activeholiday #explore #portugal #hiking #biking #burgau #travel #wanderlust #relax

☀️Our SeaSafari in 60 seconds🏝️
The SeaSafari has become our most popular adventure and is a totally inclusive activity enjoyed by all ages and all abilities.
🦞We’ve been running SeaSafaris for 16 years, originally on the Isle of Wight, hauling up lobster pots and cruising the coast to offer a unique perspective of the untouched bays and coves.
Both the Island and South West Portugal have tremendous coastlines in common. Here in Lagos, we are blessed with turquoise pools, skylit caves, deserted islands and lagoons to lounge the day away. With more than 300 days of sun, it’s easy to be on, in or under the ocean.
We offer scheduled trips as well as bespoke half to full day private charters which are perfect for larger groups or special occasions.
Thanks to @procamfilms for capturing our favourite ocean experience. Ocean Adventures are for everyone🙌 #lagos #lagoswhat2do #travel #algarve #burgau #boats #lagosmarina #portugal #wanderlust #lagosalgarve #getyourguide #postcardsfromtheworld #boats @cheetahmarine @procamfilms @drivingmiss_daisea

☀️🌿A great Finale week here at OceanBlue. We welcomed the bike crew from Northampton for another 6 days riding the wild, wonderful & untamed country and coast. Some new trails. As usual, a few dead ends, bike carrying, rewarding downhills, satisfying climbs and stunning scenery. We even managed 6 euro 30 for a round of 5 coffees and rode to the end of the world for a Sagres in Sagres.
Not many action photos because these lot are all too quick. A few stops, lost, stuck in sand or fallen off shots.🚴♀️ #algarve #portugal #activeholiday #bike #wintersun #europe #november #burgau
