Portugal's Algarve region has won our coveted prize of World's #1 Retirement Haven for the last three years running.
While that may be surprising to many who know Portugal only as a land of ancient maritime explorers, the truth is that this is one of the most popular expat havens in all of Europe, and, indeed, the entire world.
Home to more than 100,000 resident expat retirees, Portugal is a land of superlatives... this little nation boasts arguably the best beaches in Europe, along with the best weather, the best golf (over 800 holes), and, thanks to decades as an expat and tourist hotspot, the most welcoming locals in Europe.
Furthermore, the classic Mediterranean diet you'll find here counts as one of the healthiest in the world, helping to prevent heart disease, Alzheimer's, and more.
In addition, thanks to the tens of thousands of British expats who have retired to Portugal over the years, it's one of the easiest places to settle in Europe as you can easily get by without having to learn Portuguese.
On top of all that are the easy residency requirements (again, the best in all Europe) and the affordable cost of living (a couple can live well here on as little as US$1,500 a month).
Portugal is a small, under-the-radar country hiding huge opportunities right now...
