  • Family-friendly site in the Basque Coast Geopark on the Gipuzkoa coast
  • A few minutes' drive from the traditional fishing town of Zumaia
  • Pool, paddling pool, play area and bar-restaurant
Basque Country campsite Camping Zumaia is in a mighty fine location: it has splendid views over the surrounding protected forests, and among the cliffs, clear seas, golden sands and old fishing ports of the Basque Coast Geopark on the Gipuzkoa coast. More? It's close to the Urola Ibaia river and also only a few minutes' drive from the traditional octopus fishing town of Zumaia and its marina, sports centre, two glistening beaches and clutch of seafood restaurants. Family-friendly Camping Zumaia has swish modern facilities including a swimming pool and paddling pool (open in high season), a play area and an indoor playroom to keep the kids happy in all weathers. The bar-restaurant serves up local fave dishes out on its open terrace, or will happily pack things up for you to take away. If you'd rather go with a DIY dinner, pick up supplies at the well-stocked shop and cart them off to the communal barbecue and picnic area. Other facilities on site include bathroom blocks adapted for customers with reduced mobility and with free hot showers, a wifi connection, a washing-up area and a laundry area with washing machines and tumble dryers.

What customers say

A neat, friendly spot with top loos and showers. Easy access to Zumaia, trains for San Sebastián & Bilbao. Pitches a bit snug for some, but great value overall. Worth a punt, despite the tricky access road and iffy WiFi now and then.

Virginie A.

Electric hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked Peut etre pour nous ,un peu bruyant avec les places rapprochés .
Le personnel est aimable et disponible.

Disliked Dommage que la piscine n ouvre qu à 16h (pour nous ,français, cela fait un peu tard ..mais pas trés grave )
La piscine et les toilettes sont propres et agreables.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Merci pour votre avis. La piscine est également ouverte le matin de 10 h à 14 h, mais il est vrai qu'elle ferme pendant deux heures. J'espère que vous avez apprécié votre séjour. Cordialement.

Gary W.

Electric hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked Facilities, clean toilets and showers, great pool and fairly close to the town if you walk or ride along the river.

Disliked We had a tent literally right on top of our pitch with nothing but a wire fence between giving us and them absolutely no privacy, this was just luck of the draw and I think it only affects 3 of the pitches

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you very much for your review, Gary. We're glad you liked the campsite, its facilities, and the surrounding area. We're sorry you didn't like the pitch. If you return, which we hope you do, don't hesitate to ask for another one you'd like, and we'll do our best to accommodate you. Kind regards.

GARY R.

Electric hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked Showers facilities very good

Disliked Very steep and narrow entrance into site.
Plots very close together felt very enclosed.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your review. We're sorry your stay wasn't as pleasant as you expected. The standard pitches are 70 square meters, but it's true the campsite was fully booked. Kind regards.

Great site and Base to explore the Basque Region

Liked Nice campsite, restaurant was good nice food and drink.
Reception staff very helpful and friendly
Toilets and showers clean

Disliked Campsite on a big hill, description of campsite didn't say it was on a large hill.
Campsite was a bit too far from town centre.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you very much for your comment, John. We're glad you enjoyed both the campsite and the restaurant. It's true that the center is about a 15- or 20-minute walk away, but you can do it with a pleasant stroll along the riverbank. Best regards.

Local attractions

Get the camera ready and get out to explore the Basque Coast Geopark, a protected wildlife and conservation area on a slice of coast between the Bay of Biscay and the Basque mountains. The area is most famed for its geology, particularly the flysch formations etched into the park's 13 kilometres of cliffs: hike along said cliffs or take a boat trip from Zumaia to see the flysch at their best and snap fab pics. The Basque Coast Geopark town of Zumaia, a few minutes' drive away, has two sandy beaches (one, Itzurun, is a top place to forage for fossils), an Old Town with a marina, two museums, plenty of bars and restaurants, and the Gothic church of San Pedro with temple and reredos. The steam locomotives of the Azpeitia Railway Museum (up in the hills, 20 minutes' drive away) are another top local pick, or you could delve back much further in history with a look at the Magdalenian cave art of Ekainberri Cave (15 minutes). Folks with their finger on the fashion pulse may like to take a trip to see the finery on display in Getaria's Cristóbal Balenciaga Museum (15 minutes).
