Camping in Portugal: what to know
Season
Many campsites are open all year, especially in the Algarve and along the coast; the Algarve is popular with motorhomes in winter. August is the busiest month.
Wild camping
Wild camping is generally prohibited outside authorised sites; restrictions are especially strict in protected and coastal areas.
With a motorhome
Since 2021, motorhomes may not stay overnight (22:00 to 07:00) in Natura 2000 sites, protected areas or coastal zones covered by coastal plans, unless the place is authorised. Elsewhere, unless a local rule says otherwise, you may stay overnight for up to 48 hours in the same municipality. Penalties vary with the location and offence, so check the current rules before stopping overnight. Many towns have áreas de serviço para autocaravanas.
Rules vary by region and may change. Always check current local regulations and signs before you travel.
