Pet-friendly routes for discovering Galicia by camper
One of the great advantages of travelling by camper is that you don’t need to choose a single destination. Galicia lets you combine coast, mountains, villages, gastronomy and nature on relatively short routes.
Costa da Morte: beaches, lighthouses and magnificent scenery
If you’re travelling with a dog, the Costa da Morte is one of the areas worth including in your plans. Carnota, Fisterra, Muxía, Ézaro and the small fishing villages offer a landscape very different from the big cities.
Check out our Costa da Morte route to explore this journey in more detail.

📍 Fisterra View on Maps
📍 Ézaro Waterfall (Fervenza do Ézaro) View on Maps
Forests, rivers and waterfalls
Galicia is also a fantastic destination for those who prefer walking through the forest to spending the whole day on the beach.
One of the best-known options is the Fragas do Eume, while in the area around our base you can discover the Tambre river and Ponte Maceira.

Negreira and the Tambre valley
Not all of your trip has to take place by the sea. The area around Negreira lets you discover small villages, rivers, bridges, heritage and gastronomy before or after setting off towards the coast.

Planning your nights on the road
Travelling by camper also means knowing where to stop. Not every beach car park is a camper area, and conditions can change from one municipality to another.
That’s why we’ve created our map of motorhome and camper areas in Galicia , where you can check different spots across the region.
Among the areas featured in our guide are Negreira, Muros and Carnota.
Beaches and nature: travelling with a dog takes planning
Galicia has a huge number of beaches and natural spaces, but that doesn’t mean they all follow the same pet rules throughout the year.
Some beaches may allow dogs on certain dates or in certain areas, while others set restrictions during the bathing season.
Carnota
A vast coastal space where you can combine walks, nature and Atlantic scenery. Always check current restrictions before visiting with your pet.
Louro and Muros
A perfect area to combine beaches, mountains, gastronomy and a stroll through one of the best-known fishing towns in this part of Galicia.
Ézaro
Waterfall, river, mountains and coastline in a single setting. A particularly interesting stop for a short family excursion.
Fisterra
A classic destination for ending the day facing the Atlantic and enjoying the Costa da Morte scenery.
Where can you sleep in a camper when travelling with a dog?
This is one of the most important questions to answer before starting any camper trip.
At Nicracamper we clearly distinguish between parking, overnight stays and camping. We don’t recommend setting up on any beach or natural area without first checking the relevant regulations.
To help you, we’ve prepared a map of camper areas in Galicia with spots where you can plan your stages and manage services such as water and waste disposal, where available.
Before spending the night at any location, check the signs and municipal rules. Protected natural areas may have additional restrictions.
