Inclusive tourism

Camping Ribamar —
First Autism Friendly Campsite in Spain and Europe

On 4 September 2025, Camping Ribamar made history by officially becoming the first campsite in Spain and Europe to receive the Autism Friendly Certification. A recognition that marks a turning point in inclusive tourism and establishes Spain as a leading destination in cognitive accessibility.
What is it?

The Autism Friendly Certification

The Autism Friendly Certification, promoted by Autism Friendly Club, guarantees that tourism venues meet criteria for cognitive accessibility, adapted processes, staff training and inclusive materials aimed at autistic people and their families.

This distinction not only validates the establishment’s commitment to diversity, but also ensures that guests find a safe, understandable and welcoming environment, where their specific needs are met from booking their stay through to departure.
