Hour time change

I know I need to be aware of the hour time change going across the river from POrtugal to AGuarda. I assume Spain is one hour BEHIND Portugal? Or ahead?

Ferryboat Santa Rita de Cássia:
Departs from Caminha at 09:30 every half hour until 19:00 (Portuguese time).
Returns from A Guarda at 10:45 every half hour until 20:15 (Spanish time).
BUT it does not run at low tide.
AND it does not run on Mondays.

The Portuguese weekly ferry schedule is updated here:

The Spanish weekly ferry schedule is updated here:
http://www.turismoaguarda.es/?lang=en
and scroll down to “Weekly ferry timetable”.
Portugal is one hour behind Spain. So the ferry from Caminha (Portugal) to A Guarda will be one hour earlier than that shown on the A Guarda (Spain) timetable.

I hope the above makes sense!
