Wouldn't send my worst enemy to the campsite in Monte Gordo, although we love Monte Gordo but we stay near Tavira. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesFrance Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 We have stayed at many Algarve campsites since 1986, always during the winter. The one we usually go back to now is: http://www.camping-armacao-pera.com/home_eng.html An easy walk into town and the seafront and good shopping close by. They have good prices for a minimum of 3 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubberrat Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Take a look at the site in Fuseta, smallish fishing village/town. halfway between Faro and Tavira. New supermarket opened last year which is five minutes walk from the site. Site is nice enough and surrounded by sea on three side (one when the tide is out!) Also handy for the coastal train so you can shop wherever you fancy between Faro and Montegordo if you don't have transport or don't want to move your motorhome too often. If you want to get away from the coast there is a pleasant site just inland at Montcarapacho. Has a brilllant sign at the gate that reads 'Rural Caravan Park with Animals and Fruit' - Pretty much all you need in life! there was a camel and a parrot at the gate and a human cannonball cannon parked there too. Address for Fuseta/Fuzeta site:- Camping Fuzeta Rua Da Liberdade, No 2 Fuzeta Portugal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubberrat Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Nice album there ^^ Looking forward to next trip down. A friend has a huge villa in Fuzeta so we often nip down there to use it when its free and we can pretend to be rich :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vindiboy Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 I was wild camped outside the Fuseta Camp site a couple of years ago and had a new Radiator fitted by a local mechanic, it was great fun, about 20 Motorhomes were wild camped there at the time and about 15 men of all Nationalities gathered round the van and all gave advice in different Languages on how the job should be done, the beer and wine was flowing and a great time was had by all, 250 Euros for a new rad, [Fiat ] 10 litres of anti freeze a rad bung some bolts and clips and labour cheap or what.

JamesFrance Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 We like Fuseta also if it is not too crowded. There is a sort of weekly car boot/hippy market outside the entrance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
