Arco Iris, Coastal campground in Vilanova de Arousa, Spain.
Arco Iris is a campground on the Atlantic coast that spans multiple hectares and offers spaces for tents, caravans, and recreational vehicles. The facility has modern sanitary blocks, electrical hookups, and a reception building.
The campground was established in the second half of the 20th century as the Galician coast became an increasingly popular travel destination. This growth reflected a broader shift toward coastal tourism in the region.
The campground attracts visitors exploring the Rias Baixas region who want to experience local seafood restaurants and maritime traditions. Many guests use it as a base to visit traditional fishing villages and mussel farms nearby.
The campground sits between pine forests and the ocean with direct access to multiple beaches along the Arousa estuary. This location makes it easy to explore the surrounding coastal areas and take day trips throughout the region.
The setting offers a rare advantage: visitors can wake up among trees in the morning and swim at the beach in the afternoon, all on the same grounds. This transition from forest to shore is a special feature that few other campsites in the area provide.
