The staircase leading down to the beach in Lagos
Portugal has been a go-to holiday destination for Europeans for a very long time. The town of Lagos is an oceanfront town in the Algarve region, which is known for its beautiful climate all year long. In the winter, it only gets as cold as 52 degrees, and only up to 75 degrees in the summertime. The city is easy to walk around, especially near the marina. It is also just one hour away from the International Airport in Faro, so it should be easy to get on a plane to visit the surrounding countries in Europe, or to see friends and family.
Normally, Lagos has a population of only 22,000, but in the summer, tourists begin to visit from all over the world. Even though the main language spoken is Portuguese, you should be able to meet other expats who speak English. The average budget for two people is just $2,080 per month. Retiring to Portugal also gives easy access to popular Spanish retirement destinations like Mallorca or the beautiful, historic cities of Spain like Madrid and Barcelona. Many Universities and language courses have combined Spanish and Portuguese programs, so it would be well worth looking into learning both languages.
