Driving a Campervan around Faro
- The A22 Via do Infante toll motorway crosses the Algarve and connects Faro with Lagos, Portimão and the Spanish border. It connects with the A2 for a direct route north to Lisbon.
- Campervans with a front axle height above 1.10 m usually fall into toll Class 2. Pay with a Via Verde tag or online for electronic-only sections.
- Faro has no low-emission zone like Lisbon’s ZER, so no special emission sticker is needed in Faro.
- Outside protected/coastal planning areas and in the absence of municipal rules, overnight parking (pernoita) in an IMT-approved motorhome is limited to 48 hours in the same municipality. Fines can be €60–300, and €120–600 in Natura 2000, protected, or coastal planning areas.
- Camping behaviour (awnings, tables, occupying space beyond the vehicle) is prohibited outside authorised places. Use official campsites or ASA motorhome stops instead.
- The free N125 coastal road can be slow during summer holiday traffic, so plan extra time and fill the fuel tank before remote sections.
- Long-stay car parks near Faro Airport offer park-and-ride shuttle buses that reach the terminal in about six minutes and cost less than parking closer to the old town.
Places to Stay in a Motorhome
| Site | Type | Distance to Old Town |
|---|---|---|
| Faro Campervan Park | ASA motorhome area | about 5 km, taxi or bus in 15 minutes |
| Camping Municipal de Faro | Beach campsite | about 8 km, city bus in 20 minutes |
| Camping Albufeira | Full-service campsite | 45 km west, direct bus from Faro area |
ASA stands for Área de Serviço para Autocaravanas. This is Portugal's basic motorhome stop, usually costing 5 to 12 euros per night, and offers hardstanding, water and a dump point.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is free camping in a motorhome permitted in Portugal?
Wild/free camping in Portugal is not generally permitted, and enforcement can be strict in certain areas. If you’re caught breaking the rules, you may receive an on-the-spot fine.
Portugal has many campsites across the country, with prices varying widely by region and season.
Do I need a special licence to drive a camper in Portugal?
All drivers must have a current and full driver’s licence to hire a vehicle. Drivers are allowed to drive up to 6 months in Portugal without an International Driving Permit (IDP).
