Advantages: A Great Atmospheric Town Bubbling with Life and Colour Disadvantages: None
Claus who sings a song to you as you enter. Another good fish restaurant is A Forja or otherwise known as the Blue Door. This restaurant specialises in fresh fish and in the summer months it is advisable to book ahead as it is very popular with locals and tourists.
Bars change hands all the time in the centre of Lagos and there is a huge variety so you will never be parched in this town. Hotels are in abundance as are rented rooms, apartments and villas. A word of warning if renting a room - haggle on the price. Don't go with the first price offered - it will be far too much. I should say you are probably looking from £15 - £25 but that's a night not each person.
Shopping - is a lot easier than when I first lived there. I remember walking into one of the small shops on the Avenida and I couldn't see anything familiar. I wanted to cry. I ...
Advantages: sunny!! friendly, relaxed, picturesque Disadvantages: can be a bit too hot, not much shade, constantly people trying to sell daytrips
on a hotel or resort/holiday destination, is Holiday Watchdog, which tells the whole truth and nothing but the truth on every detail and quetion posible.
PERSONAL TIP:
dont go to the chinese restaurant in the centre of lagos! terrible service, cramped room with tables right beside each other and they laughed at us when we spoke!!!!!
-----MY EXPERIENCE-----

About an hours drive in the bus from Faro airport. Pleasant jouney in the Thomson bus provided. Brief tour involved in this journey as the holiday rep gives details on the area and interesting facts, I still remember that talk to this day.
Lagos seems to thrive on tourism as everything is aimed at tourists. Hotels and appartments ...

Advantages: tree lined streets bars and cafe Disadvantages: does get steep in places.
Lagos, pronounced lagoosh is situated on Portugal's Algarve region,
A beautiful place, with at one end a Castle which sits on the see edge,(now a museum), and at the other a superb boating harbour, which is accessible via a small bridge or drive to it, taking the first left after the roundabout next to the Monopoly super market.
At the waters edge, there is a large promenade made of small cobbles, each one laid by hand by an army of workers, the prom is lined with palm trees, and plenty of seating stops, perfect to sit and watch the world go by, take a glance over the sea wall, and watch a fall array of fish and small squid feeding of the underwater vegetation.
A note of warning, keep children's hands away from the tree bark, it cuts skin easily.
The beach is accessed via two main points, one just pasted the Castle, some ...
