Nice secure carpark.Bike ride round the bay across the bridge to the Campsite Las Dunnas and beyond to the marina.Eating at Bespoke tonight ??@park4night : http://park4night.com/lieu/108467/Guarded parking 24 hours. Payment but not expensive. He does not have services. The gas station nearby allows to empty and to have water if it is refueled. Excellent location to visit the city.

Faro, EM527-1

Stopped for lunch and then headed into Faro to see the Chapel of Bones, now back here to stop for the night. Lovely views but planes taking off every now and then are quite loud.

@park4night : http://park4night.com/lieu/30590/A large and flat car park, no shade and very quiet, except for the planes.
You can come and go to Faro by bus.
A wooden walkway connects you to Playa de Faro, where you can spend a very pleasant day, with many bars where you can recover your strength and a great beach.
The planes are constant, both in takeoff and landing, at night there is a break between 23 and 7 approximately.#prettyPhoto

A large dusty car park, must be messy in the rain, has 2 MH service pointa but the attendant turns the water off when he is not there.

Lots of long termers and D,GB,NL,F,P couple of large rigs.

Beach is 5 minutes, town 10 minute walk.

We met up with June & Gary who had cycled from Lagos.

Wandered into the town and marina very nice, narrow cobbled streets, lots of cafes had a nice meal.

Walked length of the beach in the evening watching sunset.

Next day we took a bike ride to Portimao, road virtually all the way. The bikes performed very well. So far we have cycled 12 miles and eco is still showing 80 miles so battery size is good. Portimao was pleasant another coastal town. Had lunch at a beach restaurant we passed on the way in Jacqui had Sea Bass quite rich.

Lagos, 20 N125

@park4night : http://park4night.com/lieu/14432/Not the most relaxing place around but does the job if you are heading into Lagos. You just pay €3 into the machine and display your ticket. From there it’s about 20 minute walk to the centre of Lagos. When we arrived there were over 50 motorhomes so it’s a popular spot!#prettyPhoto

Met Gary & June who we first met at SMC meet in July. Took a walk in the town and had a meal very nice PiriPiri Chicken.
