  • Family-friendly site 500 metres from the beach
  • Playground, tennis court, restaurant and bar on site
  • 20 kilometres south of Lisbon
Parque Orbitur Costa da Caparica is on the outskirts of the seaside resort of Costa da Caparica, which lies just over the Tagus river from Lisbon. The site is 500 metres from the beach, and around a kilometre from the shops and restaurants of the town centre. With Lisbon just a 20-kilometre journey away as well, the site makes a good base for those who would like to combine trips to the city with some beach time. The site has a bar/restaurant with outdoor terrace, a mini market, playground, tennis court and games room. Other facilities include washrooms with showers, toilets, accessible facilities and baby-changing area. The local beaches are popular for surfing, bodyboarding and kiteboarding, with lessons available from the town's watersports centre. Other activities include walks to see the fossil cliffs or the Capuchos Convent, high in the hills overlooking the resort. With good public transport links from Costa da Caparica it's also easy to reach Lisbon and Sintra for day trips.

What customers say

Great spot near the beach, easy to get to Lisbon. Staff are super helpful, pitches big and clean, especially the showers. Some bits are a bit old but getting upgrades. Can be noisy from roads and dogs, and a few bits need a spruce-up, but they're on it!

Electric gravel pitch

Liked Nice walk to the beach

Disliked Lots of permanent people in caravans on site. Pitches near the road for motorhomes very noisy with dogs barking early in the morning until late evening every day. Traffic busy but as expected near a road. Toilet blocks need updating and no hot water in the afternoon.

Pandora 1 bedroom static caravan

Liked Die Leute am Empfang sind sehr nett.Die Hütte war ok und sauber.Es war gut das wir ein nie Toilette und eine Dusche separat hatten.Zum Stand ist es nicht weit. War so wie in der Buchung beschrieben.

Disliked Die Waschräume und die Toiletten sollte man öfters am Tag reinigen da sie auch schon in die Jahre gekommen sind und keinen guten Eindruck machen.

Local attractions

You'll want to get to Lisbon as hastily as poss if you have any sense, but do take time to investigate the area around the site in between city days and daydreaming on the beaches… Worthwhile local trips include the two-kilometre hike to the 16th-century Franciscan Capuchos Convent, built high up above Costa da Caparica, and a five-kilometre trip to the fossil cliff of the Costa de Caparica Protected Landscape, rising up along a coastal length of 13 kilometres. Stop off at Almada on the way to Lisbon to see the famed Sanctuary of Christ the King/ Santuário de Cristo Rei statue, looking out over the Tagus river towards the capital city. Visitors are welcome: head up to the observation deck for spectacular views of the city of Lisbon, the Tagus and the Ponte 25 de Abril. And then onto Lisbon, Portugal’s hilly, coastal capital city crammed with ancient sites such as the Moorish Castle of São Jorge, old pastel-coloured buildings and the UNESCO World Heritage Sites of Belém Tower and Jerónimos Monastery. Also take a ride on the historic Tram 28 and take in the sights of a few of the city's dozens of museums, such as the five centuries of decorative ceramic tiles at the National Azulejo Museum, or the ancient artwork of the famed Calouste Gulbenkian Museum. Beyond Lisbon is Sintra, a 50-kilometre journey away, and well worth the trip to see its castles and palaces such as the Palácio Nacional de Sintra and the Castelo dos Mouros with its backdrop of forest.
