Tip from our team
One of the greatest advantages of Centro Turistico San Nicola is its exceptional beachfront position. My first recommendation is to take an early morning walk along the beach before breakfast. The sea is usually calm, the temperatures are pleasant and the coastal views are magnificent. It's a good idea to reserve a beach spot early during July and August, especially near the water's edge. Children enjoy the combination of beach activities and the organised entertainment programme. For those exploring Gargano, I always suggest dedicating a full day to Vieste and another day to the Tremiti Islands. Many guests consider the boat excursions among the highlights of their entire holiday. The crystal-clear waters around the islands are ideal for snorkelling and photography. Nature enthusiasts should not miss Foresta Umbra. Visitors frequently praise the cooler temperatures, beautiful woodland scenery and peaceful atmosphere. It's an excellent contrast to the coastline during hot summer days. For dining, many guests recommend trying local seafood restaurants in Peschici during sunset. The combination of fresh Adriatic cuisine and panoramic views creates a memorable evening. Finally, if you enjoy photography, plan a visit to the viewpoints around Peschici shortly before sunset when the golden light transforms the coastline into one of the most beautiful scenes in southern Italy.

SERVICES HAVE WORSENED DESPITE HIGH PRICES“Never like this year have the restrooms been disgusting; they have never been this dirty every single day. I have been coming to the campsite for about 25 years, always during the months of July and August. In the past, there have always been very efficient ladies who would punctually come back to check and clean the bathrooms. This year, I have not seen the ladies anymore. They explained to me that there were new staff members for bathroom CLEANING; they tried to justify the dirtiness with the increased presence of tourists, but those of us who have been frequenting Baia Holiday for 20 years know very well that the capacity had not increased at all this summer, quite the contrary!!! It is a shame that despite the high prices requested for the stay, the CLEANLINESS of the restrooms was truly poor, as had never happened before. Try to offer services up to the standard of what is described, also providing adequate wifi coverage towards Andromeda, given that the prices are identical to Pegaso as well as to Orione.”

A vacation made special by the entertainment“We stayed at Camping San Nicola in Peschici and, in addition to the splendid location and the wonderful sea, what we will carry with us the most will surely be the memory of the entertainment. A special praise goes to Andrea, the head entertainer, who proved to be a truly exceptional person: professional, engaging, always available, and above all capable of conveying enthusiasm and joy. It is clearly visible when a person does their job with passion, and Andrea manages to involve adults and children with incredible naturalness. A special mention also goes to Daniele, always present, friendly, and available, who together with Andrea contributed to creating a truly pleasant atmosphere throughout the entire vacation. A close-knit duo that manages to make guests feel part of a big family, without ever being intrusive. For us, the entertainment was truly the icing on the cake: activities, laughter, games, and moments of sharing that made the days even more beautiful, especially for the children. I believe that people often judge a property only by the rooms, the sea, or the services, forgetting that it is the people who truly make the difference. And Andrea and Daniele are certainly among those people who leave a fond memory. Compliments, guys, and thank you for making our vacation even more special! ❤️”
