  • Algarve site with a natural swimming pond made of clear spring water
  • In Carvoeiro in Lagoa, 25 minutes’ drive from Albufeira; 30 from Lagos
  • Surf camp, sauna and activities like barbecue evenings and yoga
The bags are packed, the sandals are slipped on and you’re off to the Algarve coast. Before you set off for any silky beaches or seaside terraces, set up your base at Oasis Camp in Lagoa, which is rather dreamy indeed… The site has a natural swimming pond made of clear spring water and right on site, there’s a surf camp providing equipment rental and multi-day lessons. If surfing isn’t quite your thing, there are also fitness activities and yoga classes to get stuck into. Having Lagoa as your location is excellent too. With rows of whitewashed house, many from the 18th century, there’s plenty to do, whether it’s surfing, dining on typical Portuguese cuisine, visiting Castelo de São João do Arade or driving under 20 minutes to sandy beaches like Praia dos Caneiros and Marinha beach. Oasis Camp has 50,000 square metres of greenery, and as if that isn’t enough to help you relax already, there’s also the natural swimming pond, a pool table and a table tennis table. The site runs communal barbecue evenings, as well as excursions across the Algarve. There’s a chilled-out atmosphere, that’s for certain.

What customers say

This campsite offers a tranquil, natural atmosphere with a unique pool area and bar. Guests appreciate the friendly staff, cleanliness of the facilities, and the beautiful natural surroundings, including stargazing opportunities. However, some visitors experienced issues with the site's organisation, limited or basic facilities (especially toilets and showers), and inconsistent availability of hot water and electricity. Pitch size and suitability for larger vehicles were also mentioned as concerns by a few.

Electric optional gravel and sand pitch

Liked The young lady on reception was very pleasant.

Disliked We stayed for 15 minutes to look around. Wasn’t impressed at all. Felt and looked like a Construction Site rather than a Camp Site. Toilet/Shower block very unclean. Got back in our motorhome and looked for somewhere else. We travelled 4.5 hours to get here too. Very disappointed ☹️

Viola P.

Electric optional gravel and sand pitch

Liked We had a great stay! The tent pitches were well laid out, with the option to choose between a private gravel pitch or a more communal grass area — a nice touch depending on what kind of camping experience you're after. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the ablution facilities, while basic, were always clean. The real standout was the amazing pool and bar — perfect for cooling off and relaxing. Highly recommended!

Disliked Pitches backed onto quarry. Toilets were very basic and the washing areas. No drinking water from tap. Point of sale and card machines unfortunately were not working and having to pay by cash was inconvenient

Douglas K.

Electric optional gravel and sand pitch

Liked Nothing. It's a shame to say that but everything was just not very nice.

Disliked The pitch size is too small for larger motorhomes. The whole site is very cramped.
There are far to many people permanently living on the site.
The place is untidy and unorganized.
The swimming pond is filthy.
The children's park is just full of broken dirty equipment.
You can't pay with card for anything.
No idea who were the staff members were.
I could go on and on.

Liked Nothing

Disliked Everything. Stayed for 30 mins and got our money back. Getting charged €30 per night and they tried to put us on the tiniest pitch with big rocks around it. Told them no way and we will have our money back. Realised that Mikki's place to stay was close by, 16km, so guess where we went for €20 a night.

Electric optional gravel and sand pitch

Liked Not a lot

Disliked Only stayed one night out of 3 booked. Tiny pitch - my side door opened straight onto the access road. Didn’t use facilities so can’t comment. Lots of old vans and makeshift encampments.
More expensive than Orbitur sites !

Local attractions

If surfing isn’t quite your cup of tea, it’s still possible to get the kids into the water without so much stepping foot on the beach. Slide & Splash (10 minutes’ drive) is a popular water park in Lagoa with slides rather than surfboards. Many of the Algarve’s most popular spots are, of course, within driving distance too. Will you start with Lagos (half an hour), where there’s a steep descent to Praia do Camilo, dramatic cliffs with a lighthouse, a castle and all the stunning terraces within the walled old town? Or instead, begin with Albufeira (25 minutes), which is just a tad quicker to get to? At this spot, join a diving trip (or a dolphin-watching trip if you don’t fancy going down under). Faro (45 minutes) is another stunning location, with plenty of stunning coastal scenery for cyclists to breathe in, as well as a cobbled old town, 13th-century cathedral and a museum in a convent.
