EL CAMPELLO

El Campello is a historic resort which offers numerous shops, bars & restaurants, a beautiful marina and 10 km of golden sandy beaches & traffic free promenade.

Campello certainly isn't a bustling place but it is a growing town that has a beautiful charm with some great local shops and a diverse mix of nationalities, mainly being Spanish, British, German, Scandanavian and French.

Campello's restaurants are well recommended and expect to pay anywhere between 10 and 30 euros for a 3-course meal with drinks. With local fishermen you can also expect some great seafood dishes to satisfy any tastebud.

Campello beach is beautiful, clean and golden and depending on the weather, can be either very calm or great for surfers with waves reaching 6ft yet it is still safe for non-swimmers and children accompanied with adults.

A favourite wateringhole is Taberna Belga El Paseo (situated on the beach front), which has on offer 30 varities of Belgium and Spanish Beers along with numerous spirit choices and comprehensive lunchtime snack menu, (ask for Yolanda or Tim, your genial hosts) and eat/drink Al Fresco in the sun.
