There is also a stop not far from Vilamoura,
near the stadium, before the bus turns off towards Loulé. This
map shows the location.
* The Loulé railway station is about 500 metres from here. There
is a closer bus stop about 200 metres from the station.
Assume the times to be the same as at Quatros Estradas. Not an
obvious route - see below.
A very limited bus service also links the railway station with
Loulé town and Quarteira, details below.
