Best Tips for Visiting Portugal in June

We suggest you keep the following tips in mind regarding your trip to Portugal in June:

  1. If you are budget conscious, June is your last window to avail some discounts on flights and accommodations before the season takes off in full swing. We suggest you make the most of this period and maximise your savings. However, tourists should book in advance when it comes to destinations where festivals may be celebrated on a large scale. 
  2. As already mentioned above, June has lesser crowds when it comes to tourists. This is partly because the rest of Europe isn’t out on a vacation ( as it would be in the month of August ). 
  3. There are plenty of festivals that are celebrated in June, so prepare to be dazzled in the festivities. Some of the most important celebrations include – the Feast day of Saint Anthony, Rock in Rio, etc. 
  4. Owing to the confluence of Spring and Summer, the waters are ideal in June to spot the cetacean wonders that the Atlantic has in store. Tourists can engage in activities like whale watching, exploring marine life, and so on.
