Geoff's right -my idea would be first go for fish lunch at O Soeste in Ferragudo then take their small ferry over to Portimao Marina for great ice cream. Then either walk onto Praia da Rocha or let your friends come to meet you somewhere on the way. Lovely !!

O Soeste once charged me 28 euro for a burnt golden bream at lunchtime - there's no way I'd eat there again.

Even better and even cheaper - the Marisqueira. Just before the square from the Sesmarias direction. No Views, no fancy decor, plenty of locals and good food - try the seafood platter - yummy,yummy :P

O Soeste charged me 100 euros for lunch once for three people. A nice piece of fish and boiled potatoes, very, very expensive for what we had. Never again. Apparently Jose Mourinho eats there when he's in Portugal, at least Mourinho can afford their prices!!
