1. The weather in June
June is when the summer heat kicks in across the Algarve. You really start to feel summer is close. The middle of the day can already feel pretty hot with an average maximum of 28 degrees. Perfect for warm salty beach days with balmy evenings on the terrace.
The sea can still be quite chilly but can reach up to 19 degrees soo a refreshing swim is always nearby!
All together, the weather and temperatures in June are really comfortable and warm. Perfect for a beach holiday and some serious pool side chilling.
2. Where to stay
Where you stay in the Algarve depends on what you want from your trip. For a beach holiday with plenty of relaxation by the sea or pool, consider the central or eastern parts. You'll find picturesque beach towns like Carvoeiro with white sandy coves and charming white-washed houses. More west, you find quaint, less-touristy towns like Burgau and Salema to slightly more bustling towns like Lagos, Praia da Luz, there's something for everyone.

Casa Nook
Casa Nook in Sagres (and Arrifana) is a one of my faves. Its the perfect place if you if you like to combine surfing and remote working in a stylish environment.

Also one of my faves. This small boutique hotel is located on top of the stunning Algarve cliffs in-between the picturesque towns of Carvoeiro and Ferragudo.
Vila Vita Parc
If you prefer luxury, privacy and lots of beach time, Vila Vita Parc is the place for you.

The Algarve sun in June is super strong so don't forget to bring 30-50+ sunscreen! With warm day temperatures make sure to pack light and airy clothing.
