  • Landscaped tourer pitches in the Parque Natural del Cabo de Gata-Níjar
  • Isleta del Moro 15 minutes' drive; Genoveses beach 20 minutes
  • Cafeteria, laundry service and breakfast pastry service
Looking for a chilled rest up in the rugged coastal Parque Natural del Cabo de Gata-Níjar? Cabo de Gata Camper Park has pretty much everything you need for your overnight stop, from free modern showers and a laundry service to a cafeteria (serving breakfast from 9am-noon) and a breakfast pastry service for quick eats (order the day before from reception). The neatly tended site is designed for caravans, motorhomes and campervans. It's all level and completely accessible for everyone, with landscaped touring pitches tucked between hedges, palm trees and regional flora. Electric hook-ups and grey waste disposal are on hand, and you can sleep soundly knowing that security guards are on duty overnight. Dogs are allowed on site (but alway pick up after them and keep them on a leash, please), and they’ll be all too happy to accompany you on walks in the Parque Natural del Cabo de Gata-Níjar. You'll be very well placed for all the park's attractions when staying here – ask at reception for inspiration if you’re not sure which hiking trails or beaches to hit first.

What customers say

This is a friendly, quirky campsite with welcoming owners. Pitches are gravel, surrounded by tomato tunnels. Facilities are basic and dated but generally clean, with hot showers. Bread delivered daily. Good value, useful stopover. Manager replies show facility upgrades are a priority.

Paula R.

Power optional gravel travel trailer campsite

Liked Las parcelas eran bastante grandes. Cabía perfectamente la furgoneta y sobraba mucho espacio para montar mesa y tener rato de ocio.
Los baños estaban en perfecto estado, he echado de menos un gancho en las duchas para la toalla o para dejar el jabón pero todo impecable.
Tiene bastantes servicios, zona de lavadero, una zona de ocio y espacio para andar.
Las dos personas que nos atendieron muy amables, nos ayudaron y aconsejaron, además muy pendientes a cómo estábamos y si necesitábamos algo. Nos mandaron información hasta de las fiestas del pueblo.
He estado un par de veces y sin duda volvería a repetir.

Eltjo L.

Power optional gravel travel trailer campsite

Liked De plaats mooi verhard en elektra en water op de plaats.

Disliked Het sanitair. Buiten dat het heel nodig aan vervanging of renovatie toe is functioneerd het niet meer. Deuren die niet op slot kunnen warm water met douchen stopt spontaan. Geen warm water voor de afwas. Voor het aantal plaatsen ook te weinig voorzieningen.
De omschrijving komt totaal niet overeen met de werkelijkheid. Enige wat klopt is broodjes service.
Beheerder is vriendelijk.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hartelijk bedankt voor uw feedback; het is belangrijk om verschillende perspectieven te horen voordat er beslissingen worden genomen. Het klopt dat de servicemodule verouderd is, dus het opschonen ervan heeft prioriteit.

Friendly, helpful owner. You get what you pay for.

Anthony M.

Power optional gravel travel trailer campsite

Liked Standard camper van park, smallish pitches on gravel, surrounded by tomato tunnels as per normal in the area.
Basic facilities, old showers but working and reasonable when you consider the lower than average daily charge.
If you are looking for top end go elsewhere and pay twice as much !
Excellent bread delivered every day.

Disliked Occasional bad smell from drains - very unpleasant.

Local attractions

If you’re staying around to sample the pleasures of the Parque Natural del Cabo de Gata-Níjar, remote beaches might be your first stop. Take a picnic to the fine sandy stretch at Genoveses (20 minutes’ drive), accessed by unpaved track and with no facilities; spectacular Mónsul (25 minutes) is scattered with vast volcanic boulders; and isolated Cala San Pedro, backed by arid cliffs, is only accessible on foot from the village of Las Negras (25 minutes). There are spectacular volcanic cliffs to admire at Punta de los Muertos (40 minutes), and you have stunning views of the rugged coastal landscapes from the summit of La Mesa Roldán (40 minutes). Closer to home, the pretty fishing town of Isleta del Moro (15 minutes) is worth visiting for lovely seaside views. There’s plenty of manmade attractions in the park too; check out the millennia-old Acueducto del Arco (half an hour), as well as the abandoned village houses at Cortijo Las Moreras (35 minutes) and the relics of a defunct dam up at Embalse de Isabel II (half an hour).
