Camping Playa América, Coastal campground in Nigrán, Spain
Camping Playa América is a coastal campsite in Galicia with more than 260 pitches, including permanent and temporary spots, spread across several hectares by the Atlantic. The grounds include hot showers, accessible restrooms, an outdoor swimming pool, and internet service covering most of the site.
The site was built on land where a former brickworks once operated, and its original chimney still stands as a remnant of that industrial era. This transformation reflects how the area moved away from manufacturing toward coastal recreation.
The site sits within the Rías Baixas region, where guests experience the rhythms of local fishing and coastal cooking traditions. Being near working fishing villages gives visitors a real sense of how people live along this Galician shore.
The site is easy to reach and provides direct access to the water for activities like windsurfing and waterskiing throughout the year. Dogs on leads are welcome during all seasons, making it straightforward for people traveling with pets.
The site preserves its industrial past not just through the standing chimney but by thoughtfully integrating this history into its design and layout. This quiet blending of heritage with modern camping creates an unusual character you rarely find at other coastal facilities.
