While Sant Eulalia is its bigger and livelier brother. Only a short drive away, this is the place to go if you want something more than sunbathing. Sit down at one of the beachside restaurants and tuck into a plate of freshly caught fish. Or, if you're feeling adventurous, take to the seas at the windsurfing school. But a holiday in Balaia isn't just about golden sands and blue seas. If you're the sporty type, you're in for a treat. Saddle up for a day of horse riding.

After all that exercise you'll probably want unwind. Pull up a stool at one of the many bars. Order your favourite tipple, or ask the barman to rustle up a more adventurous cocktail.

Or if you want a bit more choice, you're in a prime position to enjoy the bright lights of Albufeira. So you see, when it comes to Balaia, big things truly come in small packages.
