Camping Rio Alto

Camping Rio Alto is quite a large campsite located in the northern dunes of Portugal. These can be found in the green region between Porto and Braga, a short distance away from the shoreline of the Atlantic Ocean.

There's a sunbathing area, table tennis, activities for children, a self-service restaurant with take-away food plus a good resturant offering specialities of the region.
The large swimming pool is situated next to the campsite and is free to all guests.
There's a narrow 18 hole golf course (Golf Club Estela) between the sea and the campsite.
The beach is 100m away and can be accessed by a path that runs partly underneath the golf course.

Recommended by our region specialist
