  • Beachfront location on the Costa de Trasmiera
  • Pet-friendly accommodation and pitches
  • Restaurant, bar and surf school on site
If being very close to the coast is a top priority on a Spanish holiday, you'll be pleased with the blue waters and stunning surf of Loredo, a quiet sandy beach over a kilometre long in Cantabria's Costa de Trasmiera. And right on the beachfront is Camping Derby Loredo, a Spanish seaside site with direct access to the beach via a private path and – perhaps most excitingly of all – its own surf school with classes and equipment hire. After working up an appetite on your board, head back to base and to the site's café-bar or restaurant, where there is a large terrace for outdoor meals and drinks. A kids' play area is on hand for the little ones, and well-behaved pets will find a warm welcome at Camping Derby Loredo too. A handful of Loredo bars and eateries can be reached within a 10-minute walk, while just to the west in the slightly larger town of Somo there are also supermarkets that can help with self-catering stays. For travels further afield, Camping Derby Loredo is a smart pick, as the site is located under half an hour's drive from central Santander and its ferry port.

Local attractions

From its roots as a small farming community, Loredo has grown to a popular Spanish seaside resort and these days is a well-kept village with shops, several restaurants and a supermarket. Somo, also a seaside resort and also with a surf school, is a short drive or leisurely walk away at less than three kilometres. If you're off to the smashing bay of Santander, the ferry terminal is about 25 minutes' drive from Camping Derby Loredo; if you're staying closer to home, the Dunas del Puntal y Estuario del Miera coastal park is about 3km from base. Sailing, canoeing, golf, horse riding and other activities are available nearby. Twenty-five kilometres from the site, Cabárceno Park, a wildlife park in a former iron mine in the town of Cabárceno, is well worth a day trip.

Electric optional grass motorhome pitch

Liked The beach

Disliked Showers were cold
Tiny and lack of pitches for Motorhomes and caravans
Bar and restaurant closed but the was told they’d be open
Pissed up youngsters playing music, playing football and shouting till late at night
People were turning up to camp to stay after 11pm with noisy dogs
Looks like a Shanti town

2 bedroom cottage / chalet / bungalow

Liked La ubicación. Es lo mejor del
Camping. Por no decir lo único bueno.

Disliked El bungalow, viejo, mal cuidado.
Siendo para 4 tenía tres sillas. El microondas no funcionaba y tardaron un día en cambiarlo, muy pocos utensilios de cocina, una cafetera minúscula, dos tazas.

La cerradura no funcionaba.

Electric optional grass motorhome pitch

Liked We had a lovely spot on the corner so felt quite private. Looks like a lot of people live there full time. Facilities are spotless clean but a bit dated. Only one hot shower but very hot and fast.
In a good position for the beach, and little town, with butchers green grocer, small super markets and bars

Electric optional grass touring caravan, tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked This campsite is in a good location right next to the beach. But otherwise it’s really not good. The site is very run down, the toilets and showers are dirty . Ok I suppose for a one night stop over. I would not recommend staying any longer than one night .

Disliked Toilet block no hot water and generally dirty. Pitches are very basic and rough and ready.

Liked Were it is over looking a beautiful beach

Disliked Very small pitch we have a 7 meter caravan and it was tight to get it on the pitch. Also there was no water on the site for caravans only as you came on the site for motor homes. There was supposed to be a restaurant and shop on site but both were closed and we were there on 11th May
