Neighborhoods

Uber Taxis or busses and trains to go far..

Uber taxis are quick and easy to uses (also Uber Eats delivers to the door). If you want to explore Lisbon for a day the busses and trains from Portimao are cheap and fast to get to the big city.

In the summer time there are ticket outlets in the towns but shop around for some of the best prices. The water parks often have big promotions on so make sure you check out prices on Google etc beforehand. All sites will be in English.
Ang dapat iempake

SUNCREAM!!! Bring suncream and a hat!

Suncream is expensive in the supermarkets. Bring what you can with you. Also make sure you bring a hat for keeping the sun off your head and use plenty of water. Even in the winter months you will need it.
