Luxury camping in the Algarve for beach lovers and connoisseurs:
After a relaxing time on the beach, you can unwind on a sun lounger under the palm trees. Perhaps you would also like to pamper yourself in the beauty and wellness spa? Or how about a round of golf, beach volleyball, football or a new sport such as archery or surfing?
A gourmet, shopping or cultural stroll will take you to the proud port cities of Lagos and Sagres. Or marvel at the unspoilt power of the Atlantic Ocean at the southwesternmost point of Europe. You could end the day on the restaurant terrace of your campsite, enjoying freshly caught seafood and more under the open sky.
The sun shines here for around 3,000 hours a year. The mild Gulf Stream ensures that everything is green and blooming, and that it rarely gets too cool or too hot when camping in Portugal's Algarve region.

Camping under the Portuguese sun:
Discover Lagos
The coastal town of Lagos in the Algarve looks back on a glorious history: In the 15th century, it was the centre of Portuguese voyages of discovery, where ships once set sail to explore Africa and returned with gold, ivory and exotic goods. To this day, you can still feel the breath of history in the alleys of the old town, at the old harbour and within the mighty city walls.
Visitors to Lagos today will discover not only historical flair but also beautiful beaches, impressive rock formations and the lively heart of the Algarve, making it the perfect destination for those who want to combine culture, nature and the sea.
Enjoy Portugal
The Algarve tastes of the sea, sun and tradition. Freshly grilled fish, seafood straight from the Atlantic and aromatic herbs characterise the cuisine of this region. Particularly popular are specialities such as ‘Cataplana de Marisco’, a spicy seafood stew cooked in a copper pot, or ‘Sardinhas assadas’, freshly caught sardines grilled and served with bread and salad.
All this is accompanied by regional wines or a cool ‘Vinho Verde’. Those who want to discover the Algarve's cuisine will find unforgettable taste experiences in markets, small taverns and stylish restaurants: hearty, honest and typically Portuguese.
Experience the Algarve
The Algarve, once known as ‘Al-Gharb’ by the Moors, is not only the southernmost tip of Portugal, but also a region steeped in history, contrasts and natural beauty. Over the centuries, various cultures have shaped the face of this coastal landscape: from the Conii to the Romans and Visigoths to the Moors, whose influence can still be felt today in the architecture, place names and gardens. Traces of these eras can be discovered in museums and archaeological sites, as well as in the winding alleys of many old towns.
If you want to experience the Algarve away from the well-known beaches, you should venture into the quiet hinterland. A real insider tip is the historic village of Alte, located northwest of Loulé, with its white church, natural springs and a touch of authenticity. Here, the Algarve shows its authentic side: with views of rolling hills, fragrant orange groves and a culture that is deeply rooted yet full of joie de vivre.
