A smallish site with excellent facilities and it is within walking distance of the beach / promenade and to the centre of Calpe with it's numerous bars / cafes and restaurants. There are several supermarkets near by and there is an excellent Saturday market.
It is certainly a lot warmer here in Calpe than the last few sites we have visited. we have swapped snow capped mountains for sun, sea and sand. Not been swimming in the sea as yet - Harry is saving that for Christmas Day!
We have been to the Tourist Office to get a map of the local area as well as bus and train timetables. We also plan to go up the Penon de Ifach which is this big lump of rock. We are asssured that there is an easy way up!
There is a narrow guage train and tram route which runs between Alicante and Denia stopping at all the pueblos en route. We plan to visit several of the towns, including Benidorm (well you can't comment on it unless you have visited it!) We also want to travel to Valencia by bus and stopover in a hotel for a couple of nights. We shall also hire a car for a few days to explore more of Spain's interior and have already been told of lots of lovely places to visit by our fellow campers.
Because the pace has slowed down somewhat we shall now only post a blog every 2 weeks (otherwise there wouldn't be much to tell you), so our next blog will be due on 12th December.
Love to all
