You will probably need your own transport to get there. It is 3.2km (two miles) from Paderne itself. Buses to Paderne are very rare, a return trip is not even possible at the weekend.

Outward from Albufeira Bus Station to Paderne at 1235, returning at 1813, VAMUS route 4

Not an unpleasant walk by any means, along a well defined footpath mostly through wooded countryside.

If you really want to go for it, follow the alternative path along by the probably dry river, but the last stretch will be a bit steep.
