  • Well-maintained Almería holiday park with sea views
  • A kilometre from Las Negras; Almería city 50 minutes' drive
  • Outdoor pool, watersports, kids' play area, restaurant and food shop
It's all about the beach at WeCamp Cabo de Gata, where the deep blue waters and rocky vistas of the Andalusian coastline are never more than a few steps away. Located in Cabo de Gata-Níjar Natural Park, a protected area home to tons of wildlife, this well-kept site is about a kilometre outside the seaside village of Las Negras, a peaceful spot with restaurants, ice cream stands and a traditional whitewashed windmill. You won't need to do any driving here if you're after places to swim or surf – the mix of sand and shingle spots between the site and the village have plenty of quiet areas where you can settle down for some sunshine. WeCamp Cabo de Gata can also organise kayak rental, snorkelling and boat trips out to remote beaches that can’t be reached by land. Diving centres are a short drive away for those who want a closer look at the local sealife. Back at base, other leisure facilities include an outdoor pool and a kids' play area. The park is well-equipped for practical needs too, with a restaurant, food shop, free wifi and a laundry room. The friendly staff at reception will be happy to help you settle into the local area, but for more detailed itineraries or maps, you may want to head to the nearest tourist information centre in Rodalquilar (10 minutes' drive).

What customers say

This campsite is praised for its spectacular, secluded location with direct beach access and stunning natural surroundings. Visitors highlight the clean, modern, and well-maintained facilities, particularly the showers and bathrooms. The staff are consistently described as friendly and helpful. Pitches are generally spacious and offer shade, with the swimming pool area also receiving positive mentions.

Minor drawbacks include a challenging access road and concerns over pitch size for larger vehicles in peak season. Some guests found the on-site shop limited.

Rachel W.

Standard electric optional gravel and earth touring pitch

Liked A fantastic location, wonderful facilities, especially the toilet/bathroom and the swimming pool area. Also a short walk into town where there are many great restaurants to choose from. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Disliked If you don't book a large pitch it's quite a squeeze in a motorhome. Also quite expensive - but overall it's worth it.

Local attractions

Rodalquilar (10 minutes' drive) is a good place to start when you venture away from Las Negras – with its gold mines, botanical garden, castle and viewpoints, there's something in this small town to keep most visitors interested. Next up is Agua Amarga (30 minutes), where fine sandy beaches and the Mesa de Roldán lighthouse and hiking area make for thoroughly decent days out. Leave the coast behind and head inland to explore the desert-like landscapes around Níjar (30 minutes), where you can pick up artisan-made souvenirs at one of the town's small-scale ceramics factories, take a turn round a spectacular cactus garden, visit the town's museum or hike up to an old watchtower for far-reaching views over the surrounding area. Once you've seen a bit of town and country, head to Almería city (50 minutes) for more urban days out. With a cathedral, Spanish Civil War caves and a 10th-century fortress to its name, this place is quieter than many Andalusian cities but still has a lot of historic attractions to explore, plus big-city shopping opportunities at Mediterráneo shopping centre.
