  • Pitch up among the trees, a short walk from Ría de Costa Nova
  • Large sports ground, on-site restaurant and wifi available
  • Two kilometres from beaches used by surfers and bodyboarders
Pitch up in Portugal among trees, but be close to the sand, surf and sea of local beaches? Any sensible sort should want some of that, at any time. Parque Orbitur Vagueira is in a pretty prime Portuguese location, just two kilometres from the sandy beaches of Vagueira and Areão, a short walk to Ría de Costa Nova, a kilometre from Vagueira and within a 15-minute drive of Vagos, Aveiro and Ílhavo. It's set in a wood and has a big sports ground on which to tackle tennis, football or basketball, free wifi in public areas, outdoor bowling, table tennis and a restaurant.

Liked: Nice, well sized pitches amongst pine trees. Wash blocks a little dated but clean and well maintained. Good showers. Excellent swimming pool. Good cycle ride into Aveiro.

Disliked: Main road nearby - just about ok but some pitches would have felt very close to it. Communal toilet paper dispenser outside each individual toilet cubical - this is the only campsite we have stayed at in Portugal, so maybe completely normal, but did make taking enough toilet paper into the cubical with you a bit nerve wracking!

Liked: La estancia estuvo fenomenal. Íbamos cinco familias y nos reservaron las parcelas juntas. La piscina aunque no la usamos mucho, hacía fresco, estaba muy bien. El bar muy bien también, cenamos una noche unas pizzas y hamburguesas y cumplió sobradamente. El trato por el personal del camping muy amable toda la estancia Los baños del camping les limpiaban todos los días, así que bien.

Local attractions

As you'll see, Parque Orbitur Vagueira is in a pretty prime Portuguese location: have town or city days out in between days surfing or bodyboarding of Vagueira and Areão beaches, or just wander around the local countryside making it your mission to munch from as many Portuguese menus as poss. If you're an angler, go and learn more about your craft via the Xávega fishing technique of Islamic origins where a large net is thrown into the sea from small fishing boats and then dragged to shore by people or tractors; head to Sesimbra, the Meco area and the beach of Vagueira to see more. Also recommended in the region is the 17th-century Sanctuary of Nossa Senhora da Penha, patron saint of the nearby town of Grândola in the Setúbal District.
