Camping in the Algarve means golden cliffs, sea caves, long sandy beaches and plenty of sunshine. Campsites and motorhome parks are spread along the south coast, around Lagos and Sagres in the west, near Albufeira and in the quieter east around Tavira. The wild Atlantic west coast is a protected natural park with surf beaches. Thanks to the mild climate, the Algarve is a favorite for winter camping, and many sites are open all year.
Since 2021, Portuguese law has limited overnight stays in motorhomes: in protected areas, including the natural park on the west coast, they’re only allowed at designated places. Stick to campsites and official motorhome areas. The A22 motorway has electronic tolls only, without booths, so sort out payment for your vehicle before you use it.
Facilities, fees and opening times come from OpenStreetMap and can be out of date. Check with the site before you go. Campsite data: © OpenStreetMap contributors, ODbL 1.0 · Updated October 3, 2026
