You can park in the special caravan bays at Marine Parade in Dover next to the beach. Handy if you have a dog.
10-15 mins drive to the tunnel.
As others say you can also park at Calias either at City de eurpoe or the big Aire next to the harbour.

We usually try for a 10pm-ish crossing and have used the Cite Europe car park, the key-side car park and the marina car park to sleep overnight. Personal preference would be Cite Europe (nearer to the tunnel and closer to the motorway for the morning) but the other two are still very practical.
Yep, don't use the tunnel but same idea, I never stay on this side always stay in calias, like tonight, leaving home around 19:00 and get to Dover and get the next ferry.... Be asleep in calias around 24:00 subject to the weather this evening! Then heading south to faro
A few hours kip the other side at whatever your preferred spot is (Cite Europe/Calais Aire/where ever) then a bright and early start, timed between ferries/trains, no mad Le Mans exit and no trucks on the road.
A nice leisurely, stress free start to your trip. You can get a long way by lunchtime

We parked up in the tunnel main carpark overnight. The only problem we had was a knock on the door at 0300hrs because we did not have the train ticket/lettter displayed at the front as it was masked by the blinds.
We always get a late crossing/train and park at the Carrefour Aire in Cite Europe. There is plenty of room, quiet and near a police station! What is more it is near our first task of the trip - stock up with booze before continuing.
