Southern Portugal's lovely year-round holiday hotspot has always been popular, but recently however, it has become fashionable -- in the manner of Provence, Tuscany and the Cote d'Azur -- attracting celebrities such as Brad Pitt and Catherine Zeta Jones. The second edition of Cadogan's best-selling guide contains 25% more information on where to eat and stay, food and wine, flora and fauna, walking and golf. It reveals Moorish ruins, unspoiled beaches, lush valleys, and ancient villages and festivals; while also providing the low-down on more contemporary attractions such as watersports, carnivals, markets and resorts.
