managers of the stations have a neutral to unpleasant

They made us understand that we must go camping ... At 15 euros, just to put the camper ...
The Portuguese, at low wages, are invaded by the great English monetary authority that purchases ... land along the Algarve.
In addition, motor homes are not very popular. All have parking prohibition signs that we go beyond! But for now, the police did not come to us out!
Same for the beaches (Praia) or most dogs are prohibited ... Who cares!
Most Portuguese speak French well.
There are many Mac Donald, a lot of Wi Fi!

It is forbidden to stay overnight near the main beach and especially not in the parking lots of wealthy English (they call the live custody!)
