Hi

We're a family of five - three kids 12, 9 and 5.

Can anyone recommend children friendly sites (preferably with a pool on in walking distance of the beach) along the northern coast of Spain? Preferably west of Bilbao, as that's the most likely direction of travel - given wife wants to visit Santiago de Compostela.

Thanks.

David

Already checked the site review and there is only one in there

There are loads of sites along that coast. we have stayed at Camping los Cantiles at Luarca. No pool on site but not too far from the beaches. We bought Campings Espana and Alan Rogers guide to Spain and Portugal from Amazon a couple of years ago and have found them very useful.
You may also find something via the regional tourist sites.

Hi Dave,
Visited Northern Sapin year before last. Stayed several days at Camping La Paz in Vidiago.It is a stepped level site with steep entrance. However views across the bay are stunning.There is a restaurant bar and a small shop although not much in it when we went(end of season mind). No pool or activities for the kids but the beach is just below the site. Easy walk down and is beautifully sandy and safe bathing.
Hope you have a good time
Martin

Hi all,

I'm looking for a child friendly site on the North Spanish coast closer to France, so that we can head over to the Pyrenees for the Tour de France in July.

Any suggestions?

Hello !

We are also going there in August this year , (looks like a rallie forming here) or at least a mass meet... we are keeping an eye on these answers as well. We are travelling down Dover /Calais first week in August, first stop near Poiters for three days, then moving down to Biaritz (sp), then spending some time around Santander/Bilbao catching the ferry back from there to Portsmouth, so any help with campsites is very welcome

Have been scouring internet for good site near Picos Europa on coast and up in highlands.

Just booked the first of these, downside is it cost £21.00 to do the 100 Euro deposit transfer into the bank. Must say their on line booking system is pretty swish though.
