  • Family-run site on the outskirts of Peñíscola, on the Costa del Azahar
  • Papagayo Garden five minutes’ drive; Benicàssim 35 minutes
  • Activity programme on site; public bus service to beach in summer
If you've tried the Costa del Sol, the Costa Blanca and the Costa Brava, too, and feel it’s high time to discover one of Spain’s less busy Mediterranean stretches, consider the Costa del Azahar (which translates as the ‘orange blossom coast’), on the Balearic Sea. On the outskirts of the seaside resort of Peñíscola, a 35-minute drive north of Benicàssim, is Camping Peñíscola, a dog-friendly spot with spacious gravel and hardstanding pitches for convenient coastal breaks. Camping Peñíscola is run by a family, and they know what families need when they are on holiday, starting with a playground with a bouncy castle, and an activity programme that includes live music, flamenco shows and pétanque competitions. The owners also have ambitious plans for the future, with two pools in the works (including a swim-up bar and a toddlers’ pool with waterslides), a splash park and a multisports court. Until then, guests will have to go to the beach for their daily swim – and it’s no great sacrifice, especially if you have a bike: it takes about 15 minutes to cycle to sandy Playa de Peñíscola (10 minutes if you drive); from June to September, a public bus stopping in front of the site connects to the beach and the town centre. Easy-peasy. Restaurants dot the palm tree-lined promenade at Peñíscola, and there's also a varied menu available at the on-site eatery. Also on site are a modern toilet/shower block (with amenities for disabled guests), a launderette and a drying room.

Local attractions

Macaws and cockatoos are among the winged residents at Papagayo Garden (five minutes’ drive), an animal sanctuary that's home to more than 50 species of parrots, plus lemurs and capybaras. At the centre of the Laberint de Peñíscola (five minutes), Spain’s largest maze, is one of the five huge dinosaur statues on the grounds. Dominating Peñíscola (10 minutes) from a rocky outcrop jutting into the Balearic Sea, Castell de Peñíscola has a long history going back to the 13th century and the Knights Templar. On the same headland is the Magic Museum Yunke, where you can learn all about iconic magic tricks, such as levitating assistants. Poblado Ibero Puig de la Nau (15 minutes) is a fortified hilltop settlement dating from the fifth century BC. Call in advance to arrange for a guided tour, which will take you through its ancient streets, past stone houses and into a centuries-old wine cellar.
