from 6 reviews Write review

In the beautiful Portuguese Algarve is Camping Salema Eco-camp Surf & Nature. This eco-friendly resort combines the charm of the location as a surfing paradise and camping in the beautiful countryside of southern Portugal. It is close to the beach and the lively town of Salema (1.5 km), known as the hotspot for surfing lessons. You can also visit the lovely towns of Sagres (16 km) and Lagos (17.5 km).

Pitches and (luxury) accommodation

Will you be arriving with your own camping equipment? At the campsite you will find a sun-drenched site with some trees where you can park your motorhome, caravan, tent or trailer. But Salema excels in the area of accommodation. Safari tents, eco-lodges with balconies, mobile homes, apartments and even teepees: there is a huge choice.

The safari tents combine camping with comfort and are equipped with a double bed or bunkbeds, outdoor furniture, electricity and a minibar. Eco-lodges and mobile homes offer even more comfort: they are roomier and fully equipped with handy amenities, such as their own kitchen and bathroom. And who would not want to sleep in a teepee? Great fun for the children and adults.

At the campsite

Although the campsite has no swimming pool (the sea is only 1.5 km away), there are many amenities that ensure your comfort. An attractive restaurant with a small but sophisticated menu, a charming bar and a small supermarket ensure that the basic needs are met. The campsite also puts in a lot of effort to make the place a surfing hotspot, renting out surfing equipment and offering surfing lessons.
