Traveling by motorhome is the best plan to discover a country, but it can also become exhausting after many days without camping and kilometers behind us. For this reason, stopping to rest for a few days in a campsite is always a good idea. Even more so if you do it at any point on the Spanish coast, recognized in Europe for the quality of its facilities and the infinite proposal of activities for the little ones that are offered in these safe, closed and practical spaces.
Those who are unaware of this type of camping associate it with tents, young people with little hygiene or families with limited economic resources. After a lifetime with a caravan in the family, we can assure you that the reality is another story. Spanish campsites have well-kept areas that have state-of-the-art services and a healthy environment to share with the family, also in a motorhome.
Motorhome owners can take advantage of the versatility of their vehicle to combine a trip of adventure and luxury in equal parts. Thanks to the autonomy offered by the large clean and gray water tanks, which usually exceed 90 liters, they can avoid going through a campsite. However, these facilities offer advantages that we want you to discover and enjoy with your family.
Motorhome areas or service stations, with spaces for recharging and emptying the vehicle, are very good as an intermediate point on a trip. But on many occasions they are not especially beautiful or have more equipment; Therefore, if you really want to rest and for the little ones to enjoy the surroundings, you should camp.
Campsites have improved exponentially in recent decades, driven by foreign tourists, but also by nationals. The Costa Brava, for example, has some of the best facilities in Europe, with proper names such as Ballena Alegre or Camping Las Dunas. These are authentic five-star resorts full of motorhomes with license plates that demonstrate the success of our country, capable of attracting families from all parts of the old continent.
They arrive for the good weather, but they stay for the infinite quantity and the excellent quality of our services. At these campsites you can enjoy the best restaurants in the area, shop at a supermarket as large as the one in your neighborhood or keep your closet clean thanks to the laundry services.
This excellence for adults is also transferred to the activities launched by the children’s clubs, spaces designed for the little ones and which devise plans so that you can relax while your children entertain themselves independently. We are talking, for example, about soccer tournaments, swimming lessons, excursions around the campsite, camping on the premises, plays and craft courses, among many others. These activities are always supervised by adults (monitors) who aim to integrate the little ones, discover their passion for nature and improve their social skills with other young people.
If what you want is to connect with your children, you can always put work aside and get down to work. The campsites offer an endless number of sports alternatives such as soccer fields, basketball courts, tennis or paddle tennis courts and flat surfaces to practice your first meters with a bicycle. I still remember entire weekends with my skates on my feet and my parents accompanying me on a new adventure, surrounded by other children, in a safe environment and away from cars.
I soon grew along with my camping friends, so our hobbies changed. Luckily, the coast of Spain is full of opportunities related to the sea, such as surfing and its derivatives. At night, many of these premium campsites have their disco area, ideal if you are a father who wants to let his children fly but with a certain sense of control.
