23rd – 25th June

After leaving Caminha we headed to Sanxenxo in Spain, it was Sunday so we knew that the site would be busy until late Sunday when all the long stayers would go home. What we didn’t realize was that Monday was a local bank holiday, the feast of St John. The site was busy with quite a few young people about. Facilities were stretched and we could only get a luke warm shower. The weather was fantastic with cloudless skies and temperatures around 25c. We explored the beaches and concluded that these are amongst the best we’ve seen in Spain. It was still ok until the music started! There was a ‘rave’ on one of the beaches, fires were lit on the beach and the music didn’t stop until 10am the following day. It was tempting to leave but we decided to stick it out. We had very little food supplies so we walked into Sanxenxo harbour area where we had a surprisingly good steak. That evening the weekenders and long stayers went home and we woke on Tuesday morning to a completely different site. It was quiet and relaxing.

Basically this isn’t really a touring site, there are few touring pitches as the site generates most of its income from all of the long stay caravans. When we arrived there were only about 3 pitches to choose from. However since some of the nearby sites are charging 31 euros a night I suppose if you arrive and stay mid week this site is a good option. With the weather now up to 27c we’ll probably stay for a couple of more days.
