Meia Praia Beach is a wide sweep of golden sand, 4 km long which edges the Bay of Lagos and is 10 - 15 min walk away or 5 mins by car. It is spacious, clean and safe for bathing. Sunbeds and umbrellas can be hired for a very reasonable fee. Dotted along it are excellent beach cafes and restaurants serving the best of local produce. Other beaches such as Dona Ana are easily reached by car or a longer walk. The whole coast is full of wonderful beaches and beach activities. Tourist train gives easy access to other beaches around Lagos.
Faro Airport is 74 km and takes about an hour by car. Transfer from the airport by taxi is around 64 Euros. The very clean and well appointed buses which stop outside the airport are a cheaper option. The journey takes about two hours and costs about 5 Euros. You could also transfer to Faro station by taxi and catch a train into Lagos. Again it takes two hours and cost about 7 Euros. Car hire is not necessary but is recommended if you want to take advantage of all the Algarve has to offer.
Lagos Town Centre is 10 min walk through the Marina and over the pedestrian bridge. The station is 5 mins walk and the bus station 10 mins. Lisbon is about 280 km away and the train goes there as do the buses. All other places of interest are within easy driving distance of Lagos. Cape St Vincent, the most western point of Europe is worth a visit and is about half an hour's drive. Luz and Burgau, Alvor and Portimao are all worth seeing.
You might find that you barely have enough time to investigate all that Lagos and its environs have to offer. The restaurants, cafes and pubs are excellent. Food is fresh and not expensive. Wines are wonderful. The local supermarkets stock everything you could need and understand the needs of foreign visitors very well indeed. There are markets held in Lagos or round and about most days. Dancing on Friday nights to Brazilian music in the town centre is fun. For football and other sports fans, there are several very good pubs and cafes with TV coverage of all sports. The best way to get the most out of your visit is to do some internet research yourself or use the information pack provided in the apartment. Whatever you do here, you will have a fabulous time!
A refundable deposit of 200 Euros (£150) is required to cover the cost of any damage or breakages and will be returned one week after return from holiday if none reported.
A call out fee of 36 Euros per incident for such things as locking oneself out of apartment lost keys (plus cost of replacement), etc., will be deducted from deposit.
