  • 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.

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked: Goed onderhouden camping met schoon sanitair. Vlakbij ligt een industrieterrein maar daar heb je geen last van. Zumaia is een leuk dorp, waar je zo bent met de fiets. Ook strand is dichtbij maar voor een hele dag raden wij Zarautz aan, parkeren in de parkeergarage Indigo aan het strand (wel vroeg gaan). Met de trein ben je in 40 min. in San Sebastián, fantastische stad!

Disliked: Wij hebben geen gebruik gemaakt van het zwembad vanwege de badmutsplicht. Verder is het campingwinkeltje erg duur.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hartelijk dank voor uw evaluatie. We zijn blij dat u de camping over het algemeen leuk vond, hoewel we het betreuren dat de regel van het dragen van een badmuts in het zwembad niet naar wens was. Al het beste.

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked: The atmosphere, very clean and tidy. Very helpful staff. First pitch offered was too small but very quickly resolved. Good restaurant and bar. Beaches lovely.

Disliked: TV in bar not very good, we were there during the European cup so wanted to watch one match. Approach to site is off putting being through a area of warehouses and what looked like like light industrial units. Swimming hats needed in pool, we don’t have them so didn’t use the pool. A real shame is the weather was lovely.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your comment and evaluation. We are sorry that the quality of the TV in the restaurant was not good enough. In the camping store we have pool caps for those cases. On the other hand, there is a very pleasant walk along the river bank, without having to go through the industrial area. All the best.

Ok if needing a quick overnight break

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked: Site & bungalow were very clean, staff were friendly & you can order fresh bread from the shop. Bar/restaurant & shop on site. Zumaia is a lovely village & San Sebastian is a 30 minute drive & definitely worth a visit. Beds were comfy but bunkbeds, bit too old for a bunk bed haha. View from bungalow was nice as we were at the top of the hill.

Disliked: The campsite is in the middle of an industrial area, the bungalow Zumaia was very small, no toaster, no kettle & no oven. Campsite very hilly & cramped, not much privacy as you're so close to each other. Expensive compared to other campsites. Wifi no good.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thanks for your review. We are sorry that the bungalow was not completely to your liking. We will take into account what you have missed in the bungalow to improve our service. All the best.

Excellent all round site. Extremely friendly staff.

Noreen C. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked: Easy access to the town and train station. Staff at train station very friendly and helpful. Bar and restaurant very nice with friendly and helpful staff. Main shower and toilet facilities very good.

Disliked: Very steep access to the pitch and upper toilets and showers not nice compared to the main block (use the main block), also the waste water and chemical facility in an awkward spot. Pool was closed which we did not know until we paid. The pool only opens from June so for the retired and older group not good. Check before booking. Lesson learned

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked: Velmi se nám líbila upravenost kempu, čistota a zařízení. Příjemný je i menší obchůdek v campu, kde je možné si zakoupit i čerstvé pečivo po předchozí domluvě. Restaurace byla momentálně v rekonstrukci-zavřená. U stacího místa byla elektřina (za příplatek) a voda (zdarma). Toalety a sprchy krásné. Kemp je na kopci, je krásný výhled na okolí.

Disliked: Nevýhoda je dostupnost k moři či do města. Nikam jsme proto ani nešli.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: velice děkujeme za Vaše hodnocení. Je škoda, že jste nenavštívili město a jeho pláže, které jsou vzdálené 15 až 25 minut chůze, ale jsme rádi, že se vám kemp líbil. Vše nejlepší.

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).
