Travelling within Lagos

Hi, we are in Lagos for one night and two days and we’re wonder if there was good public transit to get from Lagos to the beaches? We have a toddler. We’re hoping to visit one beach and do a boat ride.

Thanks,
Anita

The buses in the entire Algarve, including Lagos run fairly infrequently - every 30 minutes during rush hours and every hour at other times. Especially with a toddler, I would suggest renting a car. Driving is very easy with good signage. Auto Europe is a great company that I have used for many years with good results.

Don’t miss Ponte de Piadade. While not a beach, it’s some of the most iconic scenery in the Algarve.

The easiest beach to get to with a toddler is Meia Praia, which is a 10 minute walk from the centre of Lagos. Head to marina via the footbridge then turn right and the beach starts in a few hundred feet just beyond the rail station.

There are lots of boat rides on offer from the marina. Many can be very bumpy and I don’t know if they have a minimum age.
