We went to camp in Ilha do Pessegueiro Camping Site for the first time in July 2010. Although there were few shadows (after all this years trees are growing) the fact that we had plenty of space all around our tent and that we had a wonderful view directly to the see conquered us, and since then we have been spending our hollidays there.

There is a mini market, a restaurant and a cafe with very nice prices and since 2 years there is even free wifi in the cafe area!

If you like to camp, but want to avoid crowds this is the perfect place to go!

If you're looking for a place to chill, forget about work and just let yourself go here it is! Fly to Lisbon, rent a car and drive down to Porto Covo/Ilha do pessegueiro. We rented an apartment and it's definitely recommendable! It is quite spacious, comes with a outside BBQ / balcony an amazing view and everything that you need for a well spent holiday! There's always live music at night and if you want to go out for a meal Porto Covo it's 5mins away and it's lovely. There are also bungalows available which offer a different experience and a better view to the sea front but you'll be stunned with the sunsets you can see from the grounds. On top of all that it's really cheap and the staff incredibly nice. The only downside is if you're looking to camp there aren't many trees or shades so prepare yourself to wake up early!

Ilha do Pessegueiro Camping is a nice camping resort in Costa Vicentina, about 2 km south of Porto Covo town. It’s located in the road that leads to the old Fort, in front of a small island with the same name: Ilha do Pessegueiro.

To get to Porto Covo there is a nice track that leads to the town. But expect 20 to 30 min walking.

The park has several infrastructures, like bar, supermarket, kids playground, bungalows and apartments.

We stayed in a bungalow and the best thing is the view: you can see the ocean, the island, … it’s great.
The bungalows have 1 double bedroom and 1 room with 3 single beds. 1 large wc with a large shower, a small but equipped kitchen and a very small living room, with a table for 4 or 5.

Next time we will try the apartment that seems better.
