  • Spacious site in woodland 10 minutes’ drive from Caldas da Rainha
  • A few minutes' drive from Foz do Arelho beach and Lagoa de Óbidos
  • Swimming pool, playground, café and summer activities on site
Now here’s a Leiria location with a lot going for it… spacious Parque Orbitur Foz do Arelho is a family-friendly forest spot that’s also within easy reach of beach, nature reserve, lagoon and plenty of town and city amenities. To the sea first? It’s about three kilometres from the site to the sandy stretch at Foz do Arelho and a couple of kilometres from the shoreline of Lagoa de Óbidos. Having those two options is mighty handy: head to the town beach to ride the Atlantic waves or get over to the lagoon for calmer waters that are more suitable for family swims or getting to grips with watersports. Urban times aren’t far away either, as a drive of 10-15 minutes will get you over to Caldas da Rainha or Óbidos. No worries if you’re trying to avoid town time though: there are lots of fine walks to be had in the nearby nature reserves and along the coast, and a good clutch of cafés and bars to refresh yourself in around Foz do Arelho village centre (a kilometre away). Can’t face travelling that far? Simply stay put – there’s a café and grocery shop on site to sort the eats and drinks, and a swimming pool for cooling off on warm days. Kids can spend time at the playground or sign up for summer activities, and there’s a paddling pool to make sure they can swim safely too. A launderette, wifi connection, campervan service point and recycling facilities are also provided to keep life nice and simple.

Local attractions

Coastal pleasures come in all varieties around here: take the five-minute drive to Foz do Arelho beach for surfing or a similar journey to Lagoa de Óbidos for canoe hire, a sailing school and other more placid watersports. There are more fab watersports activities (surfing, windsurfing, paddleboarding and the like) in São Martinho do Porto (20 minutes’ drive) if you want to give everything a go. For something rather less energetic, take a wander around the seafront village of Salir do Porto (10 minutes) or head south to Peniche (half an hour) for a boat trip to the marine park around Berlenga Grande island, perhaps with a little hiking or snorkelling along the way. Hikes back on the mainland can be had at Paúl de Tornada nature reserve (10 minutes) or along the quiet trails of Serra de Montejunto (45 minutes). Fancy a little culture injection instead? Try the Ceramic Museum in Caldas da Rainha (10 minutes) or a trip to the medieval walls of Óbidos Castle (15 minutes).
