Arrival

Faro airport (ca. 75 min.) and Lisboa Airport (ca.4h) are the closest airports. The prices vary depending on airline and saison. Faro is the destination of many low priced charter-airlines. Other possibilities are the flight to Sevilla or Jerez (Spain).

There are a few transportation options from Faro to our surfcamps:
For both camps you need to come to Lagos first. Only if you want to go by rental car to the surf-house in Arrifana. You go direct.

By shuttle from Faro Airport

We now offer privat shuttles from the Airport straight to the kitehouse, if you like to book it you will have to let us know your flight number, your origin and your arrival time at least 36h before arrival. For up to 4 pax we offer a shuttle which is 65 euros and 80 euros for up to 8 persons. The transfer has to be payed to us.

By public bus or train from Faro Airport
At the entrance of the airport terminal you will find a taxi stand and a bus stop of the busline EVA. With the bus (line 14 or 16 about 1,50€) or cap (9€) you reach the Bus central station Avendia or the train station of Faro. Both stations are located in the centre and only a couple hundred feet fare from one another.

The trip from Faro to Lagos by bus (5€) takes about 2h by train (6€) about 1,5h.

From Lisboa it is also possible to go by bus (14€) or by train (24€) to Lagos. We recommend the bus because it is usually quicker and more comfortable. From the airport you just get a taxi to Terminal Rodoviário de Sete Rios (around 5 euros) from there are 4 busses leaving to Lagos every day. For the time table have a look here
