Getting Around the Golden Triangle (Algarve)

Whilst car hire is not essential in many of the resorts, many choose to for convenience and ease of getting around. Most areas have a selection of shops, restaurants and bars within a 15 minute walk away. Taxis are easy to get and are relatively cheap.  Vale de Lobo and Vale de Garrao have shuttle buses to take you around the resort.
