Caixa Geral de Depósitos

Caixa Geral de Depósitos is Portugal's state-owned bank, so you're dealing with one of the most established financial institutions in the country. The Faro branch is on Rua Monsenhor Henrique Ferreira da Silva and keeps standard Portuguese banking hours — open 08:30–15:00, though the cash desk closes at 12:30, so get there in the morning if you need a teller. ATM access is available outside those windows.
