Has anyone seen anywhere still selling this? It is the one with the orange cover. None of the bookshops or paper shops in the old town neither Continente have a copy.

My copy is getting very battered. I know paper maps are now very much a thing of the past, but it's the best map I have had for a quick look for places.

Thanks in advance.

We'll send you a copy of our Albufeira.com maps that are available for one euro at many places across town.
I hope it'll be of use.

I think I've got 2 editions of that if it's the one I'm thinking of (goes out as far as Acoteias to the east, has bus stops on it etc).
If so it's still on sale in Miraparque newsagent in Acoteias, or at least it was 3 weeks ago.
Will check next time I'm over (14th June)
I hate how peopleï compare Frank Zappa to God. I mean, he's cool and great and nice and everything, but he's no Zappa.

I`ve seen quite a few places selling it, charging 5 euros or more ... the one in the lane between 5 october and square .. the one in front of ouratlantico .... the one under oura praia ... the latter also sell the albufeira.com map .... which I give to tour customers on sundays, when tourism is closed.

My copy says 5 Euros on it. No bus stops marked! I will have another look in the shop in the alley near the square. They didn't have any when I last looked. Thanks.

Another week Andrew. No doubt ships in the night again, or maybe not.

Hope you will be keeping an eye on Norn Iron in Euros with the Baggies connections.

Excellent quiz in One 4 the Road last night. Won again, haha. So Cubsur is organising a night at Alfredo's on Saturday to use up all our winnings. Could be messy.

I only have two wine vouchers still in date, but that will I am sure contribute towards a convivial spell between Wales beating Slovakia then England beating Russia.

Off to by my mew map later, thanks for the assistance.

I have my new map. They have expanded it to include detail of the Galé and Slgados areas, also Açoteias but have perpetuated a couple of previous errors including showing a bridge across the marina entrance. A few hotels etc are wrongly named, but that might not be their fault.

There are some irritating errors also with street names but overall a very useful thing to have around to show people what's what and where's where.
