We'll be traveling to and through Portugal for three months in winter/spring 2025 with our two 🐾 furry friends. We enjoy using municipal campsites or small campgrounds, traveling off the beaten track, and enjoying secluded beaches and ancient villages. Big cities aren't really our thing. We'll be recording our experiences on video and documenting all the spots on our campsite map. Check it out on YouTube or www.unterwegsmitdenBeckers.de

We're embarking on our journey south and documenting our route here. We've also included travel videos on our YouTube channel, and all our campsites are listed on our campsite map. Take a look.

Camping Alentejo
A small campsite, right next to the country road (which you can clearly hear), with a cork oak forest at the rear offering good walking opportunities. Well-maintained restrooms, a pool, various seating areas, lots of greenery, and a very well-maintained location. A bread delivery service and shuttle are available.
Currently, the site is 90% full, with many long-term campers. There were gunshots in the forest (hare hunting), so we moved on to the west coast.

Natural campsite with very good value for money (ACSI 17€).
There are pitches for tents, caravans, small camper vans, or large motorhomes, either in designated areas or in open spaces, whatever you prefer. The supermarket is well-stocked, there's a bread delivery service, rental cars, a pool/jacuzzi (unheated seawater), very clean restrooms, and very friendly staff. The coast and various cafés and restaurants are just 800 meters away.
Currently (02/2025) the space is 90% occupied.

Mértola is the most historic town in the Alentejo. The next Islamic Festival will take place at the end of May 2025.
Many travel guides list the area by the river/Cais as a parking space. This is incorrect. It's a parking area where cars and kayaks are also parked. There are no signs permitting or prohibiting overnight stays. Upon inquiry at the tourist information office, they say overnight stays are permitted, but the area opposite the fire station is more suitable, especially during heavy rain.
The official motorhome parking area of Mértola is located in Minas de São Domingos, about 20 km away.
