Not the heart of UK balconing competition, but the hen parties...

UK tourists may be the world champions at Balconing (

https://www.balcon.ing/) … and for an eye-popping 15 consecutive editions. But they prefer to compete in Spain.

But in Portugal, it’s the drunken hen parties where future bridesmaids make loud guttural sounds and backstroke in streets filled with their own vomit at 5am. They need to organize a similar international competition for hen parties, because their athletes are truly world class.

    Drunk Brit groups are a plague in the W Algarve, particularly Albufeira. They arrive already drunk and are just loud louts.

    Sure, the Brits might be champions of balconing in Spain, but English girls come to Portugal to experience the real “Portugal” — and that’s not found in the streets at 5 AM.
