Greg Monks went missing after leaving the main strip in Albufeira in the Algarve region after a night out between the evening of May 27 and the early hours of May 28.
Alison Fraser, Greg's cousin, has now posted a picture taken of the 38-year-old before his disappearance.
It is understood that the photo was taken as Greg and his friends headed out in the resort town on the night he went missing.
It shows Greg to be wearing a navy Nike T-shirt and navy Nike shorts.

In a separate post published to Facebook on Sunday morning Ms Fraser, who has flown out to Portugal, stated that the last official sighting of her cousin was at around 3.27am on May 28 as he walked past a property in Cerro de Aguia.
According to Google Maps, this area is around an hour and 20 minute walk from the main strip in Albufeira.
It reads: 'I'm Greg's cousin and I'm here in Albufeira, this is the last official sighting of Greg at around 3.27am on Wednesday, May 28.
'He was walking by the villa circled and in the direction of the arrow. Please share, particularly to any local residents' groups.'

It comes after we reported that Greg's family had issued a plea for locals in this area to check private CCTV and doorbell footage.
Jillian Monks, Greg's sister, had asked for home camera or doorbell footage from the Cerro de Aguia area between 2am and 5am on May 28.
She noted that this was because police believed Greg was in the area around this time.

A family friend has also set up a GoFundMe page to support Greg's family.
It has so far raised nearly £19,000.
A statement published on the page reads: 'I have been asked by the family to set this up.
"Our son Greg Monks, 38, went to Portugal for a stag do on Tuesday, May 27. On their first night out, our son Greg never returned to his hotel and has now been reported missing for three days.
'We are desperately seeking Greg's safe return and need your help. There are professional search teams out looking for Greg, and the family have all flown out to try and help find him, but they don't know how long their stay will be.
'They are doing everything they can. Every donation, no matter the size, will make a difference in our efforts to bring Greg home.
'Thank you for your support and prayers.'
Greg's family say his disappearance has been reported to the police, the hotel, where he was staying, and the British Embassy in Portugal.
A spokesperson for the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office previously said: 'We are supporting the family of a British man reported missing in Portugal and are in contact with the local authorities'.
