Rocha Brava - Touristic Apartments Map

Address:

(Total distance 65 kms from Faro Airport) / Speed limits: Highways 120 km/h; national roads 90 km/h; city 50 km/h.

On leaving the airport (straight on) or the car hire depot (turn left) go down the airport approach road until reaching the fork in the road (approx 2 km), signposted to Faro/Espanha to the right, go straight on (the road veers slightly to the left) signposted to the IP1 and Portimão/Albufeira. This leads you over the EN125 and brings you down onto the west-bound lane of this road.

Travel for approx 4 km the road then forks with the right hand lane signposted to Almancil and the left hand is signposted to IP1 Lisboa and Loulé. Get in to the left hand lane and follow the dual carriageway for 3.5 km, then take the right turn onto the slip road signposted to Albufeira, Lisboa and Portimão. This slip road will bring you onto the new Via Infante motorway (becoming the A22). You should continue along this motorway, passing Albufeira and following signs for Portimão – exiting the motorway (A22) at junction 6 signposted for Lagoa & Silves.

On leaving the A22 follow signs to Lagoa and Carvoeiro (signposted with a brown colored sign). The road eventually turns a sharp right and brings you onto the EN125. Pass through the first round-about, and at the set of traffic lights – just after the large Wine Factory on your right hand side – you will see signs to the right hand side for Carvoeiro – exit right at these traffic lights.

Now follow this road to Carvoeiro. Approximately ½ km after you join this road to Carvoeiro you must follow the left fork (in the roundabout after PLUS hypermarket). This fork is signposted to Sesmarias to the right – but make sure you stay going left to Carvoeiro. Stay on this road until you pass INTERMARCHÉ hypermarket on your right. Approximately 100m after the hypermarket is a left turn with a small restaurant called EDRA on your left as you take this turn.

Continue following ROCHA BRAVA signs for 3 kms and then turn right (again following the ROCHA BRAVA sign) for 750 m and you will come to ROCHA BRAVA (if you miss this right turn you will end up in the fishing village of Benagil). Enter ROCHA BRAVA and then take the first left where you will find the Reception.

We wish you a safe journey to Rocha Brava****.
