Coming from Faro or Lisbon you can take either a bus or a train. They run several times a day, being even more frequent on the summer and on weekdays. Coming from the north of Portugal, you'll go to Lisbon first and then directly to Lagos.
Coming from Spain: you can go to Seville and take a direct bus to Lagos. Sometimes you may get bad information in Spain about this. Some people don't realise there is a direct bus and they will inform on alternatives which are time consuming and not necessary since you can take the bus in Seville (Plaza de Armas station.)
The buses to Lagos run twice a day, except on weekends and public holidays (no bus at all.) From June until September they run every single day.
Flying to Faro Airport: you can take a taxi or a bus to Faro downtown where you'll find both the train and bus stations almost side by side. As mentioned above, you can use one of those to get to Lagos.

(Please note: dont walk too far along the main avenue or youll get to a big square with another statue far from us and you will find it difficult to get back.)
