Hi Shaun

I'm sorry I can't help with the opening times, I'd quite like to know myself!

We are going to Alvor also, early April and I was wondering if you could give me some idea as to what the weather was like when you went last year? I've got no idea what to expect or what clothes to pack. Only ever been to the Algarve once and that was July, very hot indeed!

Thanks in advance

Weather was very good in general

Over the week we had one day of cloudy / rainy weather but certainly didnt spoil the holiday

In general the early mornings were quite chilly (long sleeves and trousers) When I say early mornings bear in mind that I had a small child who was up about 630am so this may not be a problem

In the day time the sun was out and in the mid 20s. Think it got up to 29 one day.

Again once the sun went down was quite chilly with long sleeves and trousers needed

In general you should be fine with t shirts in the day and long sleeves / jumpers and long trousers in the evening

Not sure of the exact times, they were always open everytime we walked passed which was normally between 11-5. They have groups of pensioners and school children from the local area attend lessons so there maybe some restrictions.
