As avid classic car enthusiasts, our hearts skipped a beat when we heard about the hidden gem that is the classic car meet in Armação de Pêra.
Nestled in the heart of the Algarve region, the promenade of this town comes alive on the first Sunday of each month as vintage automobile aficionados gather to showcase their beloved treasures.
Back in the UK, we were accustomed to frequenting huge classic car shows that transported us to a bygone era. Armação de Pêra is a very small version of those massive shows, but it still offers a great taste of automotive history against the backdrop of the stunning Algarve coastline.
The allure of the classic car show is not limited to locals; it draws enthusiasts from various corners of the globe. We were pleasantly surprised to encounter a diverse array of nationalities – Portuguese car owners proudly displayed their vintage vehicles alongside French, German, and fellow British enthusiasts. It is not just classic cars that on display, but a vast array of cute dogs seem to attend with their owners too!
Whether you have a classic of your own, or simply have a casual admiration for classic cars, we highly recommend making your way to the event every first Sunday of the month – we believe it's an experience well worth indulging in!
