Large family-friendly site on the edge of the Minho river
Close to the Atlantic coast and to Portugal
Modern facilities including large pool, sports court and restaurant

Big, modern, family-friendly, on the edge of a river and close to the Atlantic coast (and Portugal): there's a lot to like about Camping Santa Tecla in the Galician province of Pontevedra. This is one of the biggest sites in the region on the edge of the Minho river, Galicia's longest, in a protected natural area with many an opp for wildlife watching, and a short drive from the hiking and cycling of elevated and scenic Mount Santa Tecla. The modern facilities on site include a large outdoor pool, a sports court and a playground, and amenities of up-to-date toilet and shower blocks with free hot water, along with a laundry room and washing-up areas. Several spacious shaded areas are on site to duck into from the summer heat. If you want to investigate the traditional local gastronomy – course you do, you're in Galicia – the Santa Tecla restaurant specialises in the same, all ready to be washed down by good tasty wine.

Robert H. Sept 2023

Electric optional grass motorhome pitch

Liked: I arrived in mid September with a smiling Ms “Assumption” at the front desk to greet me and teach me all things Santa Tecla. She gave me the pick of the place and made sure her colleague was there when I landed to hook up power. Then he did something unique - He actually stayed until I confirmed my unit did indeed have power then he vanished into the night. The restrooms/showers/laundry/dish area and pool are all ample in supply and well maintained by the friendliest of staff. I have stayed in nicer parks (more expensive) before, but Camping Santa Tecla was good for my soul!

Disliked: I would like the option to leave earlier than 0800 but no big deal.

Liked: Nos ha encantado, un camping amplio que cuenta con muchas actividades y unas instalaciones limpias. Tanto es válido para familias como para grupos jóvenes ya que lo dividen en zona de fiesta y zona familiar.

Disliked: El único pero sería que a partir de cierta hora ya nadie repone papel ni limpia los baños.

Liked: Las instalaciones como baños y piscina y demás muy bien cuidados y mantenidos. La piscina genial, y el bar y la tienda perfectos para un camping. Las parcelas a la sombra de unos árboles gigantes eran espectaculares. El personal muy competente y servicial

Disliked: El acceso es por camino de grava y se levanta muchisimo polvo. Por decir algo malo...

Local attractions

Fishing, kayaking, mountain hiking, cycling, snorkelling and swimming are all easy to get into around Camping Santa Tecla – but no-one would judge if you just chose to lie and bask under the hot sun instead... The site is within easy reach of the fishing city of Bayona as well as Galicia's biggest settlement Vigo; from both, explorers can catch a ferry to the spectacular Cíes Islands, a nature reserve and marine park of splendid scenery, beaut beaches and winged inhabitants such as birds of prey, pelicans and the world's biggest colony of seagulls. Even closer and on the other side of the river is Portugal, where highly suggested options include the municipalities of Caminha and Vila Nova de Cerveira and the town of Valença, and, a bit further afield, Viana do Castelo, Braga and Portugal's second biggest city Porto. (Yep, the first biggest is of course lovely Lisbon.) Another most popular option in the area is hiking and wandering in the mountainous Monte Aloia Natural Park; if you thrived on the scenery of the Cíes Islands, you'll find this place pretty fab too.
