If you like a bit of ‘me’ time thrown in with your camping holiday, then you’ll love seafront Peniche Praia – for this site also 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?

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.
