Keeping Active on Holidays and Top Things to Do

By Steve Alexander


For any tourists who want to get out and about and explore, Portugal is the ideal holiday destination. Bicycle is the best way to get around. As you head to the medieval town of Castelo de Vide, you'll start off with a focus on the history of Portugal. The castle there is surrounded by walls at the top of the hill, and has defended the people of Portugal on many occasions.

Cycle on and you will come across Sao Mamede, one of the most picturesque national parks in Portugal. Enjoy the chestnut trees and dense olive groves as you enter the cool mountainous area, before taking some time to cool off in the town, where you'll find plenty of monuments, porticos and fountains to enjoy before getting back on your bike.

You may want to treat yourself to a spot of indulgence if you feel that you've been getting plenty of exercise since arriving in the country. Head over to the Algarve if this is the case. The beautiful coastal scenery can be enjoyed here, and you'll also be able to stop off to sample the delights of the local fresh fish.

If you have never been to Puerto Rico, then you have not yet sampled one of the finest ocean experiences on offer. They say that swimming is the best exercise that you can get, but why not make it a little bit more interesting by adding a snorkel. Puerto Rico has some of the world's most impressive clear blue seas and there is plenty of sea life to see.

If you've had enough of exercising in the sea, then why not hit the sand for a wander along the crystal white beach? Many beautiful shells can be found on the coastline of Puerto Rico that you'll be able to collect and take them home as a reminder of how happy and well you felt while you were away.
