Portugal draws campers to the Algarve in the south, the wilder west coast with good surf beaches and the green north around Porto and the Gerês national park.

Whether a campsite suits you depends on what you're after. Faro offers both large holiday parks and small, quiet sites in nature. Use the filters to refine by pitch type and amenities.

What characterises the campsites in Faro?

Among the 12 campsites in Faro, 8 are by the sea or close to the beach, 2 have a swimming pool and 2 are family-friendly. The average review score of the rated campsites is 4.2/10.

The best choice depends on who you travel with. Families with children do well at a site with a pool, entertainment and a safe play area; those seeking quiet should pick a smaller site or a spot away from the crowds. With a dog, it pays to check the pet policy first.

Comparing amenities in Faro

What amenities a campsite offers often makes the difference. In Faro, look for clean sanitary facilities and hot showers, Wi-Fi, on-site dining and shopping and, with children, a paddling pool, playground and entertainment. Each detail page lists what's available.

Consider the kind of pitch too. A spacious comfort pitch with its own sanitary facilities adds convenience at a higher price, while a nature pitch is cheaper and quieter. For motorhomes, a service point and enough power matter.

Peak season or quiet in Faro?

Most sites in Faro open from spring to autumn. Expect the biggest crowds, warmest weather and highest rates in July and August; book well ahead then.

For more quiet and softer prices, the shoulder season (May, June, September) is attractive: pleasant weather, fine scenery and plenty of pitch choice.
