Hey guys, there is a ferry across to Portimão that still operates and the best bet for a train stop would actually be Ferragudo station (not Estombar-Lagoa). Check www.cp.pt for more info and tickets.
Nick, you are a master with that drone and editing your videos, not to mention your walking tours and broad knowledge of the Algarve. You are a blessing for people researching the Algarve area!
Great Video Nick! There’s so much to love about Ferragudo! One thing I would add here is that in the summer months there is absolutely nothing better than kicking back in Club Nau (on Praia Grande) with your friends and a few cold drinks whilst the kids play in the sand! Especially the sunsets over the water to Portimao 😊 👌🏼💯
Dear Nick, thank you for another wonderful video! We have spoken about Monchique a few months ago.. we are moving there beginning March. I look forward to walking around all those wonderful places you have shown us….thank you for all your insights! Your factsheet has been very helpful! Thank you very much! Heidi x
@@AlgarveAddicts Actually we both could be right, now that I think about it! This situation requires further investigation with a few Superbocks. I started therefore it's on me. 🍺 I love your channel and all the RU-vid people talking about 🇵🇹.
Hi Nick, We enjoyed the small ferry from Portimao to Ferragudo. There were also, a grouping of stores just north of the water walking to the train so going over the bridge might not be needed for larger stores like Lidl...check that because I may be wrong.
Thank you Nick! Fantastic drone footage! An idea for your next video 😉: I would be curious to hear about registration process in Portuguese schools. We are planning to relocate in March and i would love my kids to start school right away. how it works in Portugal? I couldn't find any websites of the local schools.
"Angrinha" means CROW; "Infanta" is the daughter of the king who does not inherit the crown, not infant; "Molhe" is JETTY; "Afurada" refers to a fural or license granted to a town to self govern (middle ages); "Torrado" means toasted as in a burned toast; "Caneiros" means a canal for water overflow; "Pintadinho" means painted with ink; "Mato" means bush. I do appreciate your creativity in coming up with such explanations for the names of the Ferragudo beaches... Please, don't be creative in such way...
Hi Nick! Also a South African expat, living in London but looking to move to Portugal in the next 2-3 years. Where would you say in the Algarve the best value houses are? Thanks in advance!
Just started watching you and so far so good. You just did something puzzling though - you introduced Guy who's a resident there so I was expecting you to ask him about the pros and cons of living there?
Nick we wish you would cover the topic of public transportation in your videos. Can one easily get by without a car and take a bus to the big shopping centers etc?
@@charlottaw599 because they are political lies...case numbers means people who's PCR tests say they have or had a covid infection..NOT that they are sick.Its like testing everyone for a cold. It's winter..virtually everyone has a cold at some time. The narrative is CRUMBLING as people realise the truth
Hey Nick , just wondering where you would recommend purchasing an apartment in the Algarve . We would like something near beaches , preferably walkable or at least by bike (within maybe 1-2km) our price range is about 150-200,000 for a T1 or T2 if possible . Was looking at Portimão at first but we will be living most of the year in northern Portugal and this will just be a vacation place and be rented out most of the year so I was afraid maybe Portimão wouldn’t get quite as much interest for rentals . Another couple places we looked into were Albufeira which I know can be quite busy in season and Quarteira . Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thank you
Hi Nick, we are currently in South Africa and we want to move to the Algarve region this year Aug/Sep, it's me my adult son and 3 pugs :) Would you be able to advise me which areas would be the best for a rental budget of around 700euros, we would need a T2 place, we don't mind living away from the beaches. Thank you.
Hi Ana, there are so many options. Id suggest looking on some of the rental sites for an indication of pricing. Have a look at my rentals video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GzLeSkDqkZg.html
hi nick, i want to go to this place for march/april/25. is this considered long term ? 1 br. apartment near beach. do not know where to begin, it is likely expensive.
In Ferragudo, the average would work out to be about €280k for a 100m2 apartment. Check this: www.idealista.pt/en/comprar-casas/lagoa-algarve/ferragudo/com-apartamentos/
