The motorhome parking space is great there, and next to it is a good indoor pool at 26 degrees. There's a small sauna and gym for 5.60 euros. Everything is clean and very friendly.

The Foz estuary is formed by the mouth of the Masma river. It constitutes a natural space protected by the brackish plants that grow here and the number of birds that come to this beautiful environment.
