The Alegria del Mar campsite is located on the Costa del Azahar, the Spanish part of the Mediterranean coast that includes the provinces of Castellón and Valencia. At this coastal campsite you will camp on large, flat pitches delimited by colourful oleander hedges. Not only can you enjoy good food in the cosy restaurant; flamenco evenings and karaoke sessions are also held regularly. The beach is only two hundred metres away.

Spacious pitches

The campsite is spacious and includes large touring pitches. Especially the comfort pitches are extra roomy. The pitches have a hard gravel surface and are surrounded by green, colourful oleander hedges. There is not much shade, although there are a few (small) trees around each touring pitch. Shade tarps can keep you out of the sun. A small but fine luxury: every pitch has its own sink.

Holidays at the beach

You only have to walk two hundred metres to get to the beach. The beach here is not particularly wide and consists mainly of small pebbles. So don't forget to bring flip-flops or water shoes. Nevertheless, you can sit or lie by the Mediterranean Sea. A dip in the sea is a must when you are on holiday on the Costa del Azahar.

The heart of the campsite

The restaurant is the lively centre of the campsite. In the summer months the pavement café is filled with guests all day long. The restaurant is also the heart of the entertainment. Something is organised every day. Paella evening, flamenco shows or karaoke sessions; there is something fun for everyone.

€21 per night during lowseason

Travelling party: Family with children, 12 - 18 years

Liked - Clean toilets, great little pool, a bar/smash restaurant which feels like it is suggests open with great meals, friendly Spanish/English speaking staff, clean toilets, water at each pitch, short way to the beach. We enjoyed it and stayed there instead of one night. Each day is another topic (Bingo, Paella day, Flamenco, live music)
Disliked - The camp site has its charm because it is as it is. It is not super modern but it does not need to be.

Really nice campsite with easy access and close to Peniscola for a visit. We paid extra or a large pitch rather than the ACSI one and it was well worth it. The bar has snacks and theme nights and the reception is multi lingual and super friendly. There is also a small stocked shop with essentials although supermarkets are only a short drive away. Access to the beach is by way of a gate at the rear of the site and Benicarlò is a 15 mins walk. A real hidden gem and well recommended.

A jewel of a campsite.

The staff in reception are friendly, helpful and multi-lingual. The pitches are a generous size with electrical hook ups and water supply. The pitches are fairly level with a gravel surface. The bar/restaurant does a wide selection of food, which is well prepared and tasty. The little shop on site at reception keeps a reasonable range of goods, including fresh bread every morning. The site has pretty much 100% wifi coverage. The wifi speed isn\'t stunning, but is perfectly adequate for general web browsing. The site is very dog friendly, but dogs are required to be kept on a lead - which is only to be expected. The site is approximately 250m from the beach and about 2km from the town.

I\'d most definitely be happy to return here in future.
