I will be in the Algarve, south of Portugal, for most of August. How is the speedo culture there? It's been a long time since I was there. Any good place to buy speedos? Any place where some innocent fun could happen while buying them?

A beach community like that must have tourist-oriented shops that would sell brief suits. Some Europeans still wear them. I just quickly googled the Algarve. A couple of these boutiques sell men's clothing. These are upscale. Probably there are smaller shops that don't have a web site.

This site may help with innocent fun.

I was in Salema a couple of years ago.... It's a very small town, not much for shopping, but a nice beach. I think I saw one other person wearing speedos. But it was in last of September, so the season was winding down. I think someplace like Lagos would have better shopping and beach activities.
