Traveling through the province of Pontevedra in a camper or motorhome is a real joy: coastal inlets, fishing villages like Combarro, the beaches of the Rías Baixas, the coastline of O Grove, and the vibrant atmosphere of cities like Vigo or Pontevedra itself. But after trails, swims, and long drives, it’s always good to know where you can get a proper shower. If your van doesn’t have a bathroom—or you’re just looking for something more comfortable—here are some practical options throughout the province.
Pontevedra has a good network of campsites, especially along the coast. Some of them allow access to showers even if you’re not staying overnight—just check at reception. They often offer other useful services too, like laundry, grey water disposal, or fresh water refill.
Along major roads and highways that cross the province—like the AP-9, N-550, or AG-41—you’ll find gas stations with showers. These were originally designed for truck drivers, but they’re open to any traveler on the road.
In many towns across Pontevedra, municipal sports centers offer access to showers with a day pass. If you’re traveling in summer, it’s a great way to cool off or unwind a bit after driving.
In inland or rural areas, many hostels or albergues may let you use their showers even if you’re not spending the night—especially if you ask politely. This is quite common in areas along the Camino de Santiago, where they’re used to travelers passing through.
