The Playa Arenillas campsite is half an hour's drive from the beautiful city of Bilbao. In total, this campsite has 120 pitches and some rental options: two mobile homes and six tents. When the tide is low, a sandy beach appears next to the campsite. A little further is another sandy beach. There are various beautiful cycling and walking routes around the campsite. The children will also enjoy themselves on the large playground. In the morning you can go to the campsite for fresh bread and in the evening the paella is recommended in the campsite restaurant.

Accommodation options

The flat terrain of the campsite is subdivided into different pitches. Regular guests are generally more at the back and tourist pitches are at the front of the campsite. The site has large plots with space for 120 pitches. The sanitation is neatly arranged by the campsite staff. There are also some rental options. The campsite has a total of two mobile homes, with two rooms and a kitchenette. And the campsite also has six tents available.

Beaches

Right next to the campsite, at the foot of a high mountain, a sandy beach appears at low tide. A normal sandy beach is about one kilometre away. At high tide this is the ideal terrain for surfers. Surfboards can be rented at the campsite for a fun day.

Entertainment

Children will have fun at the campsite's large playground. They can clamber in the play equipment or play a game of table tennis. There are also various walking and cycling routes around the campsite. These routes are of medium difficulty and ideal for exploring the neighbourhood.

€27 per night during lowseason

Travelling party: Seniors

Ein schöner Wiesencampingplatz mit großzügigen Pazellen. Eingebettet in eine schöne Landschaft. Das Ebbe-Flutspiel am Strand ist unbeschreiblich. Ein kleiner Spaziergang den Berg hinauf und ein ganz toller Blick in die Natur. Auch die Restaurants sind sehr zu empfehlen.
Aber auch das Restaurant am Platz ist sehr gut. Morgens habe ich das frische warme Baguette geliebt. So lecker!
Mit dem Bus kann man bis Bilbao fahren- fast direkt vom Platz.
Mit dem Fahrrad kann man in die nächste Stadt. Castro Urdinales.
Die Pilger zu Fuß und auch mit dem Rad werden freundlich empfangen.
Die Sanitäranlagen sind immer sauber und ordentlich. Das Personal ist super freundlich und hilfsbereit. Für uns war das ein sehr schöner und toller Platz.

Zu teuer für das Gebotene, da haben wir schon andere Acsi Campingplätze angefahren die günstiger waren und das Angebot besser war, Busfahrt in die Stadt mit einmal umsteigen, das Personal ist zwar freundlich aber die Busverbindung muß man selbst herauslesen auf dem Zettel am Fenster , Bilbao ansehen ist ein Muss
