Europe’s leading luxury lifestyle resort hosts a variety of camps, activities and events for Half Term and Easter Holidays and you don’t want to miss out.
Quinta do Lago, the luxury family destination in the Algarve, just 15 minutes from Faro Airport, has announced an exciting season of sports camps and events at its world-class multi-sports complex, The Campus. Launching from February onwards, the camps are designed for guests of all ages, with dedicated programmes for children aged 4–18. The camps deliver professional-level coaching in a fun, structured and inspiring environment. Led by expert coaches and supported by state-of-the-art facilities, the camps focus on developing skills, performance and confidence.
For Adults
The camps include padel leagues and cycling social rides for adults, alongside dance, tennis, swimming camps, triathlon, aquathlon and football camps for junior members. These Camps offer the opportunity for everyone, from first-time participants to elite athletes, to enjoy the spring sunshine while exploring the resort’s health, wellness and active lifestyle offering.
Adults are encouraged to take part in activities such as Cycling Social Spins, with guided group rides from The Bike Shed taking place on several mornings a week for both beginner and advanced riders. Guests can also join the Padel & Tennis League, where players compete across eight stages, providing a structured and social way to challenge themselves and their opponents.
For Juniors
Junior Tennis Camps run from 14–22 February, providing inclusive coaching for players of all abilities. Sessions are tailored by age and skill level, helping each child progress at their own pace while building technique, confidence and match-play skills.
The Dance Camps, available from 16–20 February and 6–10 April, welcome children aged 6–12 for a week of movement and self-expression. From ballet to hip hop, participants explore new styles, learn original choreography and build confidence while discovering their own rhythm.
For swimmers, SwimElite is a high-performance training camp for competitive swimmers aged 10–14, running over four intensive days in February, April, May and October. Participants refine technique and race performance across all four strokes: freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke and butterfly. Younger children can join the Swimming Camp (30 March–3 April and 22–26 June), designed for 3–4-year-olds. This gentle, playful programme focuses on essential water safety and survival skills in a calm and supportive pool environment.
Quinta do Lago has also partnered with Football Escapes to welcome the return of its Football Camps.
