Atlantic Coast Route: from Porto to the Algarve
- Nazaré & the Silver Coast
- Sintra and Lisbon
- Sagres & Cabo de São Vicente
160 pages, 4 fully worked-out routes, 4 city guides, and for every single day GPS per stop plus a Plan B for bad weather or crowded spots.
Planning a motorhome trip through Portugal means evenings of googling blogs that contradict each other. On the electronic tolls without toll booths, the 48-hour rule and overnighting near protected nature areas you will find almost nothing usable. This guide replaces that research.
Blogs tell you where to go. This book sorts out what each day actually looks like.

68 days in total — from the Atlantic coast and the green north to winter sun in the Algarve and the mountain villages of the interior.
For each day you get: why this stop, what to do, motorhome advice, an area to look for overnight spots, a Plan B and GPS with a Google Maps link per stop.
Nazaré is the best-known seaside town on the Silver Coast. The beach lies below; high above the cliffs sits the Sítio. Because you are staying two nights, there is no need to rush anything after arrival today.
Drive the 113 kilometres to the coast in the morning and settle in at your overnight spot. Later, take the funicular up to the Sítio and look out over Praia do Norte from the lighthouse.
There is more space on the high side near the Sítio than down in the seaside town. From there, take the funicular or walk down to the beach.
Search area: Nazaré, preferably on the higher side near the Sítio. Choose an official motorhome site or campsite where you can stay two nights, with a disposal point and a pitch out of the wind off the cliff edge.
If it is overcast, start in the lower town and at the fish market. Save the viewpoints above for tomorrow.

The electronic tolls without toll booths, the 48-hour rule, the Lisbon low-emission zone and where to leave the motorhome parked: it is all worked out per day.
Every single day has an alternative — for when the weather turns, but also when a popular spot is full or too busy.
Rules, tolls and zones are checked against the official Portuguese sources. Not a dead blog link from years ago.
Each city guide says what you should not miss and what you can happily skip. That saves time and money.
160 pages, everything in it.
A printed guidebook costs 25 euros, holds no motorhome information and is already out of date when it goes to print. This guide is the 2026 edition and made for motorhomes. One toll fine because you did not know about the electronic registration costs you more. It pays for itself on day one.
Not happy? You get your money back within 14 days. One email is enough.


We are the founders of Camproads. For this guide we brought together four routes through Portugal that we drove ourselves by motorhome. We also tell you what to skip, because an honest guide is worth more than a list of highlights.
