  • Peaceful site with direct access to a beach on the Adriatic Sea
  • Bisceglie five minutes’ drive; Castel del Monte 35 minutes
  • Shaded pitches with motorhome service points; yoga and live music
Fancy the idea of waking up to heart-opening sunrise views over the Adriatic Sea and being lulled to sleep by the sound of the waves? Then you might want to head to Camping Cala Batteria. This peaceful site is about three kilometres from the Puglia town of Bisceglie (five minutes’ drive), on a low coastal plateau. A short walk takes you to the beach, and while it’s not soft, golden sand as far as the eye can see (sun loungers and umbrellas rest on a granite bed), the crystal-clear waters (so clear, you should not forget to pack your snorkel) more than make up for it. Other beaches (with pebbles or a mix of pebbles and granite slabs) can be reached within a five-minute walk. If you want to explore the splendid Puglia coast on two wheels, a cycle path runs just past the site and skirts the seafront. Spacious pitches shaded by tall maritime pine trees come with motorhome service points, drainage hook-up and chemical disposal, and the site also has a toilet/shower block with facilities for disabled guests. The helpful staff organise entertainment and activities, from yoga sessions accompanied by sea breezes (and sea views), to soirées enlivened by local musical acts, not to mention dinners featuring typical regional products and dishes. There are also seafood restaurants and pizzerias in Bisceglie, plus several supermarkets (the nearest is a 15-minute walk away).

What customers say

Stunning seaside spot with great views & beach access. Staff are friendly, facilities clean & well-equipped. Spacious pitches, but larger vehicles need care at the entrance/exit. Some noted missing toilet paper/soap. Dog-friendly with a park. Most facilities open low season.

Liked Friendly staff and warm welcome. Good sized pitch, clean facilities, great view from the battery along the coast; steps and slopes to small rock beach with ramp into the water - nice swimming - well located for public rock/shingle beach, promenade, and then a walk or cycle away to the town. When I arrived at reception and the bread was late, one of the guys even brought it to our van when it turned up! Would definitely visit again - one of our favourite stops on a 4 week tour down Italy's East coast and up the West. We liked the parrots!

Disliked Not really a dislike - there is work being done to improve the site and the open expanse of the battery, which will address a couple of areas currently looking a bit tired.

Liked Nära till klippor och strand med sköna bad. Varmvatten ingår både i disk och dusch. Hjälpsam personal. Stora tomter.

Disliked Trångt att ta sig in o ut. Kräver stor körvana och mod …. Kartorna visar trånga vägar som inte lämpar sig för husvagn.

Powered gravel and earth site

Liked Ruime camperplaatsen, rust, leuke vogels op de camping, gave zonsopkomst. Heel dichtbij de zee. Mogelijkheid om te wassen. Een zwembad, schone nieuwe toiletten. Hondvriendelijk, er is een doggypark (je betaalt wel (€5,- per hond per nacht), schaduwplekken.

Disliked Zelf wc papier meenemen, geen zeep om je handen te wassen na toiletbezoek. Vogels (soort parkieten) zijn soms luidruchtig, maar dat went snel, vogelpoep. Geen zandstrand maar rotsen. Vuilnisplek was erg vies.

Local attractions

The centre of Trani (15 minutes’ drive) has narrow streets lined with elegant buildings. Right on the seafront are the Castello Svevo, a defensive structure built in the 13th century by Frederick II, and the Romanesque Basilica Cattedrale Beata Maria Vergine Assunta, whose light-coloured limestone is almost dazzling against the blues of the sea and the sky. Atop a vegetation-covered hill, from where it overlooks the farmlands of Alta Murgia National Park, is the UNESCO World Heritage site of Castel del Monte (35 minutes), also built by Frederick II. The limestone-and-marble castle has an octagonal structure dotted by eight octagonal towers, and might have been used as an observatory. Stroll through the Old Town of Bari (45 minutes) to see local housewives preparing and selling the local pasta (orecchiette, or little ears) outside their homes; or head to the Fish Market for some freshly caught seafood and Italian-style sushi. The Teatro Margherita sits right on the harbour and plays host to art shows and exhibitions.
