Great place to enjoy a camping holiday. But it is also possible to explore inland from your coastal campsite.

But this 200-km long coastal strip in the northeast of Spain is so much more. Because if you love culture and the great outdoors, you will run out of time. The beautiful fishing villages, churches, museums and botanical gardens alone will guarantee you a varied holiday. For example, visit the fascinating cities Blanes and Lloret de Mar.<\/p>\n<h3>Blanes<\/h3>\n<p>You can enjoy sunbathing at one of the beaches of the seaside resort <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/catalonia\/girona\/blanes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Blanes<\/a>. When evening falls, pick one of the many bars or terraces to relax in \u2013 always a great time until late at night. Not really a lover of beaches? Go for green in the two large botanical gardens: <a href=\"https:\/\/marimurtra.cat\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mar i Murtra<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spain.info\/en\/places-of-interest\/pinya-de-rosa-tropical-botanical-gardens\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pinya de Rosa<\/a>. Admire and smell aloes, cacti and other exotic plants. While strolling through the gardens, you will always have a beautiful view of the Mediterranean Sea.<\/p>\n<h3>Lloret de Mar<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/catalonia\/girona\/lloret-de-mar\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lloret de Mar<\/a> is particularly loved by young people. But don\u2019t let that fool you: fans of culture and nature have a great time here as well. There is the church of Sant Rom\u00e0 or the <a href=\"https:\/\/patrimoni.lloret.cat\/en\/moll-open-museum-of-lloret\/santa-clotilde-gardens\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Santa Clotilde Gardens<\/a>. Also unique: the beautiful cemetery where the tombs, graves and mausoleums are true works of art. If you prefer to avoid the crowds, go to Lloret de Mar in April or May. It is much quieter then, at the campsite as well.

Logical, because the temperature is still very pleasant during the winter months. A dip in the sea is somewhat less pleasant, with temperatures being better for that between June and October. If you are not a fan of salt water but are looking to cool down, most of the campsites along the Costa Brava have one or more swimming pools! And otherwise you can always visit one of the water parks: <a href=\"https:\/\/waterworld.es\/en\/home.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Water World<\/a> (Lloret de Mar), <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marineland.es\/catalunya\/en\/plan-your-visit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Marineland Catalunya<\/a> (Palafolls) or <a href=\"https:\/\/aquadiver.com\/en\/inici.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Aquadiver<\/a> (Castell-Platja d\u2019Aro).<\/p>\n<h2>Camping along the Costa Brava<\/h2>\n<p><div class=\"jcarousel-wrapper\"><div class=\"jcarousel\"><ul class=\"camping-slider\"><li><figure class=\"slide-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.acsi.eu\/6\/9\/3\/5\/693531fe74552.jpg\" alt=\"Camping Bellsol\" height=\"133\" width=\"198\"><div class=\"slide-overlay\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/catalonia\/barcelona\/pineda-de-mar\/camping-bellsol-106824\/\">Info & Booking<\/a><\/div><\/figure><div class=\"slide-title\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/catalonia\/barcelona\/pineda-de-mar\/camping-bellsol-106824\/\">Camping Bellsol<\/a><\/div><\/li><li><figure class=\"slide-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.acsi.eu\/6\/9\/3\/5\/69353a75676ea.jpg\" alt=\"Camping Benelux\" height=\"133\" width=\"198\"><div class=\"slide-overlay\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/catalonia\/girona\/palamos\/camping-benelux-107754\/\">Info & Booking<\/a><\/div><\/figure><div class=\"slide-title\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/catalonia\/girona\/palamos\/camping-benelux-107754\/\">Camping Benelux<\/a><\/div><\/li><li><figure class=\"slide-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.acsi.eu\/6\/9\/3\/8\/69385d92d6b66.jpg\" alt=\"Camping Las Dunas\" height=\"133\" width=\"198\"><div class=\"slide-overlay\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/catalonia\/girona\/sant-pere-pescador\/camping-las-dunas-106787\/\">Info & Booking<\/a><\/div><\/figure><div class=\"slide-title\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/catalonia\/girona\/sant-pere-pescador\/camping-las-dunas-106787\/\">Camping Las Dunas<\/a><\/div><\/li><li><figure class=\"slide-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.acsi.eu\/6\/9\/e\/2\/69e24e1f7fd7e.jpg\" alt=\"Camping Mas Nou\" height=\"133\" width=\"198\"><div class=\"slide-overlay\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/catalonia\/girona\/castello-d-empuries\/camping-mas-nou-106778\/\">Info & Booking<\/a><\/div><\/figure><div class=\"slide-title\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/catalonia\/girona\/castello-d-empuries\/camping-mas-nou-106778\/\">Camping Mas Nou<\/a><\/div><\/li><li><figure class=\"slide-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.acsi.eu\/6\/9\/3\/8\/69385de7a0076.jpg\" alt=\"Camping La Ballena Alegre Costa Brava\" height=\"133\" width=\"198\"><div class=\"slide-overlay\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/catalonia\/girona\/sant-pere-pescador\/camping-la-ballena-alegre-costa-brava-106788\/\">Info & Booking<\/a><\/div><\/figure><div class=\"slide-title\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/catalonia\/girona\/sant-pere-pescador\/camping-la-ballena-alegre-costa-brava-106788\/\">Camping La Ballena Alegre...<\/a><\/div><\/li><li><figure class=\"slide-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.acsi.eu\/6\/9\/3\/8\/69385f6b78dd8.jpg\" alt=\"Cala Pola\" height=\"133\" width=\"198\"><div class=\"slide-overlay\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/catalonia\/girona\/tossa-de-mar\/cala-pola-106817\/\">Info & Booking<\/a><\/div><\/figure><div class=\"slide-title\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/catalonia\/girona\/tossa-de-mar\/cala-pola-106817\/\">Cala Pola<\/a><\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div><a href=\"javascript:;\" class=\"jcarousel-control-prev jcarousel-prev-disabled\">&lsaquo;<\/a><a href=\"javascript:;\" class=\"jcarousel-control-next\">&rsaquo;<\/a><\/div><br \/>\n<a name=\"dorada\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Costa Daurada: enjoy the Golden Coast<\/h2>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/costa-daurada\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Costa Daurada<\/a>, Costa Dorada in Spanish, has amazing beaches and lively seaside resorts, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/catalonia\/tarragona\/salou\/?\" rel=\"nofollow\">Salou<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/catalonia\/barcelona\/sitges\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sitges<\/a>. The 216-km-long Costa Daurada is also promisingly known as the \u2018Golden Coast\u2019. Rightly so, since the sandy beaches here are gold-coloured. Because the beaches slope so gently down into the sea, they are very suitable for families with children. This makes the Costa Daurada perfect for an amazing beach holiday with the entire family.<\/p>\n<h3>Salou<\/h3>\n<p>Salou is the ideal holiday destination for a sun worshipper. It also has a charming tourist centre. But &#8230; there is more. The well-known youth hotspot also contains Spain\u2019s largest amusement park: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.portaventuraworld.com\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PortAventura World<\/a>. If you want to go karting or climbing, Salou is a great destination. Go to the climbing park Bosc Aventura and the kart track Karting Salou. For older children, a visit to Salou and its many exciting attractions are definitely worthwhile.<\/p>\n<h3>Sitges<\/h3>\n<p>Sitges, another attractive coastal location along the Costa Daurada, is a lovely historical centre with squares, small castles and gardens. You come here mainly for the peace and quiet. You stroll through the small streets at your leisure and stop every now and then at a terrace for a refreshing drink and some delicious taps. There are still seventeen more beaches! Sitges hosts several international events annually, such as a film festival, carnival and the Gay Pride. The peace and quiet disappear and the city buzzes with fun.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_39208\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-39208\" class=\"wp-image-39208 size-full\" title=\"Sitges\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Sitges.jpg\" alt=\"Sitges\" width=\"800\" height=\"531\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Sitges.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Sitges-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Sitges-768x510.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Sitges-207x136.jpg 207w, https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Sitges-140x94.jpg 140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-39208\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The boulevard of Sitges is very pleasant.

Visit the ancient Roman amphitheatre in Tarragona. Or take in the Ciutadella Iberica in Calafell, a reconstructed village with elements from various centuries. In addition to the nightlife and its historical heritage, Costa Daurada also has unique fishing villages. You can dine on fresh fish every day here. Visit the market of the fishing village Cambrils for delicious local specialties with their colours and scents.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_39191\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-39191\" class=\"wp-image-39191 size-full\" title=\"Amphitheatre Tarragona\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/shutterstock_1428445781.jpg\" alt=\"Amphitheatre Tarragona\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/shutterstock_1428445781.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/shutterstock_1428445781-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/shutterstock_1428445781-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/shutterstock_1428445781-140x94.jpg 140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-39191\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Admire the impressive Roman amphitheatre in Tarragona.<\/p><\/div>\n<h3>Dive in!<\/h3>\n<p>The Costa Daurada is also very suitable for water sports enthusiasts. There are many spots to surf, sail and dive. If you\u2019re not really a fan of swimming, go inland. You can go on extensive hikes or even climb mountains. A good long hike will show you all the beauty that the Costa Daurada has to offer: its golden beaches, green vineyards, rugged mountain ranges, huge marshy areas and picturesque coves.<\/p>\n<h3>Campsites along the Costa Dorada<\/h3>\n<div class=\"jcarousel-wrapper\"><div class=\"jcarousel\"><ul class=\"camping-slider\"><li><figure class=\"slide-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.acsi.eu\/6\/9\/3\/5\/6935c2c039c92.jpg\" alt=\"Camping Ametlla\" height=\"133\" width=\"198\"><div class=\"slide-overlay\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/catalonia\/tarragona\/l-ametlla-de-mar\/camping-ametlla-110125\/\">Info & Booking<\/a><\/div><\/figure><div class=\"slide-title\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/catalonia\/tarragona\/l-ametlla-de-mar\/camping-ametlla-110125\/\">Camping Ametlla<\/a><\/div><\/li><li><figure class=\"slide-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.acsi.eu\/6\/9\/3\/7\/693716e97b9bb.jpg\" alt=\"Camping Yelloh!

And then there is still the old working-class area Santa Cruz. It is a maze of narrow streets and flights of stairs. It has colourful small houses with amazing shutters and doors.

Be sure to visit the castle and show your best side on the boulevard.<\/p>\n<h3>Benidorm<\/h3>\n<p>Benidorm has golden beaches as well as a beautiful boulevard. There are restaurants with food from all corners of the earth, sunny terraces and charming little shops. The historical centre lies on the promontory with its famous skyline around it.

If you are on holiday with the family, you might want to consider the activity park Casa de Pedrera. Young and old will enjoy themselves horseback riding, quad riding, waterskiing and canoeing. Finally, there is the beautiful Castle of Guadalest to visit. The eleventh-century castle has a spectacular location is the mountains, about 25 kilometres away from Benidorm.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_39199\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption

href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/andalusia\/?\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Andalusia<\/a>, are often on or close to the beach. It is easy to go inland from the campsite to visit cultural cities such as Almeria and M\u00e1laga. But don\u2019t forget the famous seaside resorts such as Torremolinos, Fuengirola and Marbella. This makes the Costa del Sol a varied coastline with quiet, undiscovered spots and tourist magnets.<\/p>\n<h3>M\u00e1laga<\/h3>\n<p>Surrounded by mountains, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/andalusia\/malaga\/malaga\/\">M\u00e1laga<\/a> still exhibits many influences by the Moors, such as the beautiful former Moorish fort Alcazaba. The cathedral is also an impressive landmark. The beaches, the boulevard and the charming catering in this part of the city are also worth exploring. For a city trip with culture, delicious foods and sun, M\u00e1laga is the place to be.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_39220\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-39220\" class=\"wp-image-39220 size-full\" title=\"Malaga Spain\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Malaga-Spanje.jpg\" alt=\"Malaga Spain\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Malaga-Spanje.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Malaga-Spanje-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Malaga-Spanje-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Malaga-Spanje-140x94.jpg 140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-39220\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">View from the Gibralfaro castle in M\u00e1laga on the mountain with the same name, Mount Gibralfaro (\u2018Rock of Light\u2019)<\/p><\/div>\n<h3>Almer\u00eda<\/h3>\n<p>In Almer\u00eda as well, close to the Sierra Nevada mountain range, you will see a lot of influence by the Moors. Or you can imagine yourself in an Arab world during a visit to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.andalucia.org\/en\/almeria-cultural-tourism-alcazaba-de-almeria\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Alcazaba de Almer\u00eda<\/a>. Anyway you look at it, there is a lot of history in the centuries-old Almer\u00eda. Any of the museums there will tell you all about it. The city\u2019s cathedral is very special because it was designed as a fort to protect its inhabitants from pirates. Children will be especially interested in a visit to the underground network of the <a href=\"https:\/\/puertodeculturas.cartagena.es\/ficha_refugios.asp?idioma=2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Museo Refugio de la Guerra Civil<\/a> (Civil War Shelter Museum), built as a shelter against the bombardment during the Spanish Civil War.<\/p>\n<h3>Flamingos and wolves<\/h3>\n<p>Big cities with monuments, small fishing villages, relaxing seaside resorts, inland skiing centres. The Costa del Sol is one of the most varied regions in Spain. If you love the great outdoors, Costa del Sol is a destination to add to your list of places to go. From Torremolinos, you can go out with a guide to admire the flamingos (one of the largest species in Europe) or visit a nature reserve for wolves. Or visit historic Ronda, which is surrounded by three national parks. This is the location of the famous bridge over the Tagus River.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_39195\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-39195\" class=\"wp-image-39195 size-full\" title=\"Ronda Spain\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/shutterstock_1705465924.jpg\" alt=\"Ronda Spain\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/shutterstock_1705465924.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/shutterstock_1705465924-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/shutterstock_1705465924-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/shutterstock_1705465924-140x94.jpg 140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-39195\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Spanish city Ronda with its impressive bridge.<\/p><\/div>\n<h3>Camping along the Costa del Sol<\/h3>\n<p>The campsites along the Costa del Sol have everything you could wish for and are usually on or at least close to the beach. Sporty campers can enjoy themselves at the campsite and in the vicinity by going on a hiking, cycling or climbing adventure. There are several skiing centres in the mountain range of the Sierra Nevada. The many amusement parks and water parks along the Costa del Sol are popular among teenagers and their parents.<\/p>\n<h2>Campings along the Costa del Sol<\/h2>\n<p><div class=\"jcarousel-wrapper\"><div class=\"jcarousel\"><ul class=\"camping-slider\"><li><figure class=\"slide-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.acsi.eu\/6\/9\/3\/7\/6937179a6afeb.jpg\" alt=\"Camping Playa Almayate Costa\" height=\"133\" width=\"198\"><div class=\"slide-overlay\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/andalusia\/malaga\/almayate-bajo\/camping-playa-almayate-costa-101380\/\">Info & Booking<\/a><\/div><\/figure><div class=\"slide-title\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/andalusia\/malaga\/almayate-bajo\/camping-playa-almayate-costa-101380\/\">Camping Playa Almayate Co...<\/a><\/div><\/li><li><figure class=\"slide-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.acsi.eu\/6\/9\/3\/7\/693717925806c.jpg\" alt=\"Camping Caravaning Laguna-Playa\" height=\"133\" width=\"198\"><div class=\"slide-overlay\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/andalusia\/malaga\/torre-del-mar\/camping-caravaning-laguna-playa-101381\/\">Info & Booking<\/a><\/div><\/figure><div class=\"slide-title\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/andalusia\/malaga\/torre-del-mar\/camping-caravaning-laguna-playa-101381\/\">Camping Caravaning Laguna...<\/a><\/div><\/li><li><figure class=\"slide-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.acsi.eu\/6\/9\/3\/8\/69385b7f0480e.jpg\" alt=\"Camping Huerta Romero\" height=\"133\" width=\"198\"><div class=\"slide-overlay\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/andalusia\/granada\/castell-de-ferro\/camping-huerta-romero-106644\/\">Info & Booking<\/a><\/div><\/figure><div class=\"slide-title\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/andalusia\/granada\/castell-de-ferro\/camping-huerta-romero-106644\/\">Camping Huerta Romero<\/a><\/div><\/li><li><figure class=\"slide-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.acsi.eu\/6\/9\/3\/9\/693930e4abec9.jpg\" alt=\"Camping \u00d3rgiva\" height=\"133\" width=\"198\"><div class=\"slide-overlay\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/andalusia\/granada\/orgiva\/camping-orgiva-111005\/\">Info & Booking<\/a><\/div><\/figure><div class=\"slide-title\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocampings.co.uk\/spain\/andalusia\/granada\/orgiva\/camping-orgiva-111005\/\">Camping \u00d3rgiva<\/a><\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div><a href=\"javascript:;\" class=\"jcarousel-control-prev jcarousel-prev-disabled\">&lsaquo;<\/a><a href=\"javascript:;\" class=\"jcarousel-control-next\">&rsaquo;<\/a><\/div><br \/>\n<a name=\"opkomst\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Emerging Costas<\/h2>\n<p>If you would love to go to a beach campsite in Spain but want to visit places that are less busy, travel down to the Costa del Azahar, between Barcelona and Valencia. This is also called the Orange Blossom Coast. Inhale the delicious scent at one of the spacious orchards and don\u2019t forget to visit the impressive hinterland. True sunworshippers stay on the Warm Coast (Costa C\u00e1lida) in the Murcia region, where 250 kilometres of coastline await you. And then there is still the Costa de la Luz. This is an authentic part of southern Spain with beautiful nature reserves like the Do\u00f1ana National Park. One of the most beautiful cities in the region is the delightful city of C\u00e1diz.<\/p>\n<h2>Share more camping ideas<\/h2>\n<p>If you have chosen a camping holiday along one of the hospitable Costas, then you are at a perfect location to experience all that Spain has to offer.
