  • Peaceful Peniche touring site with a spa and Atlantic Ocean views
  • Varanda de Pilatos five minutes’ drive and surfing beaches 10 minutes
  • Restaurant and barbecue; two swimming pools, saunas and massages
If you like a bit of ‘me’ time thrown in with your camping holiday, then you’ll probably love seafront Peniche Praia – this site has a dreamy modern spa where you can relax and rejuvenate in peace while overlooking Portugal’s Atlantic coastline. Near some of the world’s best surfing beaches, Peniche Praia has several level grass pitching areas on the seafront, each with electric hook-ups, a water supply and secure parking. Other handy amenities to make your life easy include washing machines and dryers, and a waterside barbecue and picnic area. There’s also a restaurant if you’d like to avoid cooking every day. You can join aqua-aerobics classes and make use of the gym on site, and when it’s time to get out and about exploring the rocky Peniche peninsula, you can hire bikes too. Staff members will also book surfing lessons for all levels of ability as well as transport to the beaches. But back to that thalasso spa. Facilities range from two saltwater pools to a sauna and steam room, whirlpool jets, massages and holistic treatments. It’s quite likely that you’ll abandon plans to head off site altogether once you’ve seen it… and who could blame you?

What customers say

Great spot near the beach with ocean views, but some found facilities dated, pitches dusty and small. Pool's a bit chilly and chlorinated. Management's on it though.

Liked Die Lage.
Der Platz und die Anlagen waren sehr sauber. Die Plätze toll mit Wasser und Stühle.

Disliked Unser Stellplatz war direkt an den Becken zum Geschirrspüler, hier war morgens sehr früh laut.
Sehr störend war der Lärm aus dem Restaurant am Pool und bis später in die Nacht auf dem ganzen Platz.

Liked Camping à taille humaine.
Les barbecues à disposition c’est vraiment top !
Piscine et salle de sport sur place (même si nous n’y sommes pas allés, car en vacances pour visiter).
Proche de belles villes (Nazaré, Lisbonne, Fátima, Obidos…)

Disliked Les emplacements sont un peu petits.
Un pôle sanitaire sur les deux disponibles qui n’est vraiment pas propre.

Powered grass and earth site

Liked Ofrecía muchos servicios: spa, gimnasio, buen restautante. La ubicación: cerca de la playa. Atención por parte de los recepcionistas y camareros de restaurante excelente

Disliked Los baños no estaban muy limpios... No había papel ni jabón de manos (cosas básicas que si he encontrado en otros campings de Portugal). No había tienda para comprar cosas básicas como pan, agua, o algún olvido que hayas podido tener...
La zona para fregar platos tiene unas piletas muy bajas. Los grifos no mantienen el agua mucho rato y cuesta lavar mucha vajilla por la duración del agua, aparte te pones lleno de agua porque están muy bajos y salpica todo.

Local attractions

Blasted by ocean waves over millions of years, the coastline of Peniche peninsula rewards exploration with dramatic cliffs along its northern coast, and numerous sandy beaches with exceptional surfing conditions. The experts among you should head for Praia do Medão Grande (aka Supertubos, 10 minutes’ drive), notorious for its tubular waves, while Praia Norte (50 minutes) has gentler waves and is the place for novices to build up confidence. If surfing’s not for you, enjoy watching the Atlantic waves roll in from atop the cliffs around Cabo Carvoeiro Lighthouse, and marvel at the blow hole carved through sheer rock at the Varanda de Pilatos (both five minutes). The historic fishing village of Peniche (five minutes’ walk) is home to a resistance museum in its impressive castle and a flamboyant gold altarpiece in São Pedro Church. It’s also the gateway for cruises (half an hour by boat) out to the rocky Berlengas Islands, a UNESCO-protected archipelago where you can tour the landmark Fortress of St John the Baptist, go cave-snorkelling in pristine water and follow trails through Berlengas Nature Reserve to (hopefully) spot nesting cormorants and peregrine falcons.
