TIMETABLE NOTES

THE VERY STRANGE LOOKING ARRIVAL TIMES IN LAGOS ARE ACCORDING TO THE PRINTED TIMETABLE!
VAMUS HAVE CONFIRMED THAT THESE TIMES  ARE CORRECT.
I see some padding in the timetable to ensure right time arrival in Lagos!
See this note, which summarises connections at Lagos for travel between Sagres,  Portimão, Albufeira and Faro.
Go to this this page for the buses between Lagos, Portimão, Albufeira, the airport and Faro.
IF YOU ARE INTENDING TO CHANGE TO OR FROM THE TRAIN AT LAGOS :-
  THE RAILWAY STATION IS FIVE MINUTES WALK FROM THE BUS TERMINAL, BY THE FOOTBRIDGE
ACROSS THE RIVER AND PAST THE MARINA
IT IS A LIFTING BRIDGE FOR BOATS AND MIGHT OPEN UP IN FRONT OF YOU! BE AWARE IF TIMES ARE TIGHT.
Picture of bridge raised

There are buses every 30/60 minutes from the station into town on weekdays. Weekend service is both irregular and infrequent.
How far from (x) to the village?
Approximate distances – Burgau (X) to Burgau about 2 kilometres, Barão São Miguel (X) to Barão São Miguel about 3 kilometres;
Salema (X) to Salema about 1.7 kilometres down (and back up) a VERY steep hill!
The stop called Salema (X) is very near the entrance to the Parque da Floresta golf and holiday resort.
