Parque de Campismo Furadouro
This campsite has earned the loyalty of guests who have returned for over 36 years, drawn by the warm hospitality and friendly local population that many consider friends. It blends genuine southern charm with meticulous cleanliness and good organization, creating a successful and welcoming atmosphere. The staff are a highlight, making visitors feel at home through their genuine care and professionalism. The environment is both relaxed and efficiently managed, offering a harmonious balance between conviviality and order. Long-term stays here are especially rewarding, as the community embraces visitors as part of the family. It is an ideal spot for travelers seeking an authentic, friendly, and well-kept camping experience. Recent years show that the campsite primarily serves long-stay guests who visit on weekends, with touring pitches that are reasonably spacious. Guests can select their own pitch and park a car next to the caravan without hassle. The ground is sandy forest soil, and ants can be numerous and persistent, so it's wise to bring deterrents. Sanitary facilities are clean but dated, and there is no hot water for washing dishes. Electricity is limited to 4 amps, which trips quickly. The entrance access cards frequently malfunction, adding to the annoyance. The location is beautiful, nestled in woodland with sun and shade, and lies directly by the sea with endless sandy beaches ideal for long, uncrowded walks. Swimming is not recommended due to strong winds, high waves, and powerful surf. A small town is within walking distance, quiet on weekdays but popular with Portuguese day-trippers on weekends. The campsite is an excellent base for visiting Porto via the train from Ovar, 5 km away. The return fare for two pensioners is very affordable, though there is no guarded bicycle parking at the station. Some visitors report that sanitary facilities are below acceptable standards and the electrical system is outdated, presenting a contrast between the serene environment and poor infrastructure.
