FAQs About Albufeira Hen Weekends
Does Albufeira Have a Good Nightlife?
Albufeira is one of the best places in Europe for hen parties (ever) and it offers loads of places to party with a huge choice of entertainment and busy nightlife, particularly along "The Strip" (Areias de São João).
When is The Best Time to Go to Albufeira for a Hen Do?
Whilst peak tourist season will be in July and August, the main hen season is May and June, with 47% of our hens choosing those months for their Albufeira hen dos in 2024.
The sun will still be blazing, the prices are cheaper, and the party atmosphere is electric.
How Expensive is Food in Albufeira?
Food in Albufeira doesn't need to be expensive. Like any popular European destination, there will be tourist traps that will charge more, but if you look around you can find cheap bites to eat if you're conscious of your budget. You can easily get meals for under €10, but if you want to factor in drinks and extras, we'd recommend making restaurant reservations through us!
How Many Nights Should We Stay on a Hen Do in Albufeira?
Our 2024 statistics show that 78% of hen groups were looking to go to Albufeira for 4 or more days (that's 4 or more nights!). This is slightly longer than the average pre-wedding celebration, but people want to make the most of their time in Portugal.

Portugal ranks as one of the safest European countries for female travellers overall. Here are some safety tips for women travelling to Albufeira:
- Always stick with your group and agree on a meeting point in case anyone gets separated.
