The loveliest campsite in Portugal...

The Turiscampo campsite is located 5 kilometres (3 miles) to the east of Lagos and 20 kilometres (12 miles) from Cape Saint Vincent, Europe’s south-westernmost point. This establishment is within the vicinity of the Praia da Luz beach, one of the numerous beaches in Lagos, the coast of which alternates between fine sandy beaches and steep cliffs, which are a sheer drop into the Atlantic Ocean.
The campsite occupies a campsite of around ten or so hectares, an area divided into 219 plots and 137 holiday rentals. The majority of plots are shaded and intended to accommodate tents, caravans and campers. The pitches enjoy an average surface area of 80 m², the largest of such pitches indeed being in excess of 100 m². All are equipped with an electrical connection, with some also taking advantage of a water point and a waste water disposal system.
