time is not an issue as we cant check in at faro till 2pm , so i thought we may as well go by train , can you buy tickets at all stations , ie. estombar and silves .

can anyone inform me of the best train station to use for our return to faro from carvoiero sat 17th oct , spending last 3 nights in faro, i understand some stations are quite remote and i will need to purchase ticketson the day.

many thanks.

Hi ,

Due over for an annual rest and wondered if anyone can recommend bars/ restaurants which may have music in the evenings in October . went to a nice pizzeria in sesmarias last time on a sunday evening which had a chap playing the guitar and singing , most enjoyable.

any help appreciated

Thanks EMM for that info , when you say there is quite a tide in the algarve do you mean a strong tide or a large tidal range , where I live (a tiny island called sark in the channel islands) we have a 10 mt tidal range so have to pick our times for shore fishing carefully.

cheers

but I still don't know where to get a license or what bait to use , where I live I just use feathers or other lures , guess the same will work there.
cheers for all the info.

I believe you have hit on something there , It's all seeming familiar , name , lively host , who was so sorry to turn us away.
Just wanted to book before we arrive , will get me a few brownie points if it,s booked for the day of arrival.

Many thanks

just checked that out on the web , afraid its not that one , it had large window at front and you looked down at the tables , my wife seems to think that they had checked table cloths, trust a woman to be remember that.

Also is there anywhere locally th...

Hi All , Many thanks for the replies , tried to book on cp website but it shows no trains from tunes to lisbon after 5th October , I will be travelling on the 17th.

Our first visit is approaching fast , only a week to go , and she who must be obeyed suddenly releases a " oh by the way I want to go to Zoomarine" , her wish is my command.
