  • Family-run site 300 metres from Benicàssim's Heliópolis beach
  • Close to the natural areas and mountain range Desert of the Palms
  • Pool, games room, restaurant, café-bar and bar terrace
By the sea, by the mountains, and a few minutes' drive from both Benicàssim and another golden sandy Mediterranean beach… tick all boxes off your holiday checklist at Castellón's Camping Tauro. It's only 300 metres to the beach of Playa del Heliópolis from the site, for times on sands and in sea, as well as fishing from the rocky piers nearby. The other award-winning beaches of Benicàssim are under 10 minutes' drive away; more seaside towns such as Oropesa del Mar, Torreblanca, Villafamés and Peñiscola are within easy day trip distance, and the spectacular city of Valencia is just under an hour's drive in the other direction along the coast. Camping Tauro is family-run, with over 30 years' experience looking after guests. It's a good-sized site with a good range of facilities and amenities, from an outdoor pool and indoor games room to a roomy bar terrace and a well-stocked shop with local produce. There's a restaurant and a café-bar to keep you fed and watered, with takeaway available if you prefer to pick your own peaceful spot around the site. Other facilities include a playground and a pétanque court. Free showers, toilets, a launderette and a washing-up area are also on site.

Liked: Hard, clean pitches and good, warm showers.

Disliked: Pitches rather tight but motor-mover proved invaluable with our caravan. Some residents occupied double, back-to-back pitches to accommodate awnings/trailers etc.

Electric gravel pitch

Liked: This is a peaceful campsite with excellent facilities. The staff are kind and helpful. The toilets and showered are modern and spotless. There is an outdoor sink area with hot water, washing and drying facilities, a cafe and a bar. The pool is clean and large and fairly quiet. We came mid May, originally planned to stay one night but loved it so much we stayed two and wish we could have stayed longer! Excellent value for money and would definitely stay here again!

Linda M. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Electric gravel pitch

Liked: Really enjoyed staying here for the 2weeks over Christmas and New Year , the facilities were very good ,plenty of showers with continuous hot water, sinks on every pitch (cold water) ideal for filling up the water tank.you could get plenty of warm water using a bucket from the showers or laundry area for washing up The Toilets and showers were cleaned regularly. The laundry was very good and gave a good clean wash and quick dry but probably could do to have a couple more of each. The swimming pool was very clean .The areas for emptying waste water and filling up were clean.The electrics for pitches were close by.Not far to walk to beach and great cycle tracks in both directions .Not far from a large supermarket.Unfortunately can't comment on Restaurant as it was closed for refurbishment but they did open up the bar area on New Years eve so we could have a get together taking our own drinks and nibbles.All Staff very friendly and helpful.

Local attractions

The fine white sands of Playa del Heliópolis are part of the six kilometres of award-winning beaches of Benicàssim, a scenic and popular seaside resort a short drive from the mountains. The town is the setting for the annual FIB music festival every July; if you're not around then, make your way just north for roams around the protected natural area and mountain range of the Desert of the Palms. More seaside resorts are to the east at Oropesa del Mar, just under 15 minutes' drive away, Torreblanca, within 25 minutes, Villafamés within 30 and Peñiscola, just under an hour from the site. This last is a particularly famed site for its rocky headland setting, separated from the mainland by a thin strip of land: go see, and take many snaps. If you're on Spanish holiday with the kids, Bioparc Valencia is 55 minutes' drive from the site, and the huge theme park of PortAventura an hour and a half.
