In the middle Ben! 10 to 15 minute walk to either. Good place to stay for both.

Tourist cafés serving English style breakfast don't open particularly
early. Most are closed in February in any case. And the Portuguese don't do breakfast as such, coffee and a pastry
at most.
If you want to be sure of getting something in the morning without having to roam the streets, then the hotel looks a good enough bet. |

thanks cubsur.
Just got a email back from dreamwave this trip sounds good - Yes, we do
the “Insónia – Caves & Dolphin Watching tour” all year subject to
weather/sea conditions and a minimum number of participates.
The price is 35€ per person and tickets can be purchased at all hotel receptions in Albufeira.

Buses from only from the main bus station, which is about 15 minutes walk or a short bus ride from the stop down the road past the 'Watches;' roundabout and opposite the Continente shopping centre. They are very irregular. Times on webpage below; go to almost the bottom of the page. Bus costs €3,20 plus €1,40 to the bus station if you decide not to walk. Bus ride to Algarve Shopping from the bus station takes 10 minutes. www.algarvebus.info/albufeira.htm A taxi would be about 7 Euros going this thursday looking forward to it at weather looks like its going to be around 18. It does indeed. is there many places worth taking a walk out to?
How far do you want to walk? Most places need a bus to get you there eg Salgados nature reserve, Falesia, the countryside around Messines. I hope that helps. |
