It would be a challenge to access the beach in a wheelchair. The hill down to the beach is very steep and the pavement is uneven.

There weren’t when I went in November but I believe there are earlier in the season. Lot of hotels and restaurants were shut in November. There’s a bar on beach which unfortunately was shut. If you walk along cliff top there’s benches. I used one of these to lie in the sun. Nicer views up there. Nice place to watch the sun set too.

Yes there are shops selling the usual beach stuff just up from the beach, we bought bucket and spade for the little one.

Bring one just in case as this is only an aparthotwl and pool is outside from hotel

Bus runs approx every 40 minutes to Albufeira on Mon-Fri.Saturday and Sundays are much less frequent. Bus also runs in opposite directions you can visit Vilamora or Faro.Watch out though as bus service ends very early between 6-7 Pm.Never wait for the last bus.Fare to Albufeira is approx 2.20 one way.Taxi back is approx 10 euro during the day and 2 euromore at night

Hotel ligeiramente perto da praia dos olhos de água 1.6 km 6 minutos a pé.

The boat trips and fishing trips I have done over the years I used to leave from Vilamoura harbour. Now though more recently from the new Albufeira harbour which is closer from Olhos da agua. The agents you book from will tell you which harbour. Hope this helps.

É uma praia pequena mas muito bonita, a qualquer hora do dia ou da noite. Tem apenas 2 acessos, um com uma grande escadaria que desce do miradouro até à praia e outro em que os carros circulam até cerca de 200 m da praia mas os estacionamentos ficam a cerca de 600 m e não são muitos para a procura. Tem vários bons restaurantes junto à praia. No ‘Caixote’ prove a sopa de peixe - Nunca encontrei melhor! Tenham uma boa viagem e óptima estadia.

Sorry being long to get back. Thank you very much for your answer.

On our recent visit (June) there was no police around .. all looked fine
