I’d never wanted to go to Benidorm, but our friends had been and said the old town was beautiful, so we decided to go and see it ourselves. Benidorm surprised me quite a bit; it’s a very lively city with a stunning viewpoint, which I think is the most beautiful part of the city. Another thing that surprised me is […]
We had no idea a place called Santa Pola existed until our friends Gaby and Ralf told us we should go. We planned to go to Elche, but I looked up Santa Pola and saw it had a large parking area. We decided to go there instead of Elche. Santa Pola is a fishing village very close to Elche, with […]
We went to Totana, in Murcia, to avoid the coast and because we saw it was in the Sierra Espuña Natural Park. It’s a small and very simple town, but it has a historic centre with 17th-century monuments and stately homes from the 18th and 19th centuries. Where to stay We stayed at Camperstop Sierra Espuna (37.792801, -1.51031 lat, long), […]
We went to Roquetas de Mar, in Almería, because we’d heard it had great beaches, was sunny, and had free parking. We really enjoyed its promenade, the beaches, the port, Santa Ana Castle, and the bullring, which, as you’ll see, is unique. Where to stay We stayed at the free motorhome area on Avenida de la Aduana (36.770356, -2.603399 lat, […]
We arrived in La Herradura on a Saturday morning and were immediately charmed by what we saw. The town is located on Granada’s Costa Tropical, and the first thing that catches your eye is its stunning horseshoe-shaped beach, hence its name. It has a great atmosphere, with beach bars featuring live music, plenty of water sports, a castle, and an […]
Finally, we left Marbella on January 9th. We went to La Caleta de Vélez, a charming fishing village, part of Vélez Málaga, where we met our friends Trudy and Slim, an English couple we met in France two years ago. Where to stay We came to Caleta de Vélez because there’s a motorhome area at the port (36.748525, -4.065704 latitude, […]
Our visit to Algeciras wasn’t planned, but we thoroughly enjoyed it. Algeciras is a port city where people go to catch the ferry to Morocco. It’s right next to Gibraltar, offering incredible views of the Rock and the Moroccan coast. We had passed through many times on our way to Tarifa, etc., but had never actually visited Algeciras itself. We […]
We came to Marbella to spend Christmas with my family, and we were surprised by how beautiful the city was, with lights, Christmas markets, Santa’s house, and a music light show in the Orange Square. What to see We went first during the day and found a great Christmas atmosphere. We went by motorbike and parked in the centre. We […]
We went with Helen and Rob to visit Istán, a village of Arab origin in the Sierra de las Nieves Natural Park. The road leading up to the village is full of curves with breathtaking views of the Verde River and the surrounding countryside. Along the road, you’ll find several fountains where people stop to fill jugs with water that […]
We went to spend the winter at Sonora Beach, a quiet beach where dogs are welcome, in the municipality of Estepona, with spectacular views of Gibraltar and Africa. The area is between Marbella and Estepona, very convenient for seeing my friends and family and visiting the different towns in the surrounding area. It also has many places with activities and […]
