With a name like Dunas y Mar, you can probably summon up something of a picture of this Valencian Community touring site. And if that picture is mostly made up of seaside… well then you’d be pretty accurate, as it’s just across the road from a protected natural area of dunes that leads down to a lovely sandy stretch of beach.
Getting to the beach is merely a case of wandering along a wooden walkway through the vegetation of the dunes, so it’s a mighty peaceful outing with no road traffic in site. Unsurprisingly, the beach has something of a wild and unspoiled vibe, with clean water and plenty of quiet space. It’s a gorgeous spot, but if you fancy trying a beach with more facilities, you can get to Torrevieja or Santa Pola with a drive of about 15 minutes.
Although this location might at first appear splendidly remote, in fact it’s very well served with various amenities – being just on the edge of San Fulgencio means that there are a couple of supermarkets and restaurants within a few minutes’ walk, as well as fun things like a miniature golf course. More shops and places to eat are a few minutes’ drive away in the town centre, which also hosts a market on Saturdays.
And if you don’t feel like going that far… well, it’s handy that there’s a café and bar on site, along with communal barbecues where you can cook up any bits you’ve purchased while out and about. Other facilities on site include a play area and pétanque court for a bit of entertainment, plus a launderette, bike hire facility, wifi service and well-kept bathrooms. Dogs are welcome, and there’s an exercise area where they can run about.

Local attractions
The beach by the site is likely to occupy you for a while, but there’s more to this stretch of coastline, of course… including scuba diving, windsurfing, sea kayaking, paragliding and canyoning from Santa Pola (15 minutes’ drive).
Alternatively, head south to Torrevieja (15 minutes) for surf lessons, family-friendly days at Aquapark Flamingo and a sight that may well make you rub your eyes in disbelief – the pink waters and pink flamingoes of Las Salinas de Torrevieja, a salt lake just outside the town.
If you want to cast your net a bit wider, plan trips to the archaeology museum and palm grove in Elche (half an hour), or spend time exploring the historic attractions and eateries of your nearby cities – both Alicante (40 minutes) and Murcia (50 minutes) make good day-trip destinations.
