"Members choose Cabo de Gata for its very peaceful surroundings"
Cabo de Gata is located in the semi-arid Cabo de Gatar-Nijar natural park, on the Gulf of Almería, one of the most southerly and reputedly driest points in Europe. With good modern facilities, the site makes a good base for visiting the natural park with its salinas (salt pans) and their abundant birdlife, while on site activities may range from bingo to Spanish lessons. You can walk out of the campsite entrance straight into the park’s famous flat sand dunes. The park is also known for the richness of its diverse flora growing in the volcanic soil, and for its beaches, rocky cliffs and salt flats. Cyclists will find both on and off-road routes. To get the best out of the region members need to use their vehicles to visit the many secluded coves with their rocky cliffs, the spectacular moorish tourist town of Mojacar, the surrounding mountains for horse riding, the beautiful villages of the Sierra Nevada’s Las Alpujarras area; or visiting the movie sets near Tabernas, used to film many westerns.
