Camping Playa Taray

Clearly the beach is likely to be your number-one priority here – and so it should be, because you’ll be able to while away many an hour out on the sands, either relaxing right there by the site or wandering up to La Antilla to try out the inflatable water park or have a go at various watersports. For other ways to be out in the open, there’s a great hiking/bike trail (Sendero de Molino Mareal de Pozo del Camino) a couple of kilometres away, or you can soak up the sea views while playing a round at Club de Golf de Islantilla (five minutes’ drive). There are lots more beaches to visit along the Costa de la Luz, but for a change of scenery you might try a day out in Huelva (40 minutes), seeking out various sites related to Christopher Columbus and eating all the top Andalusian dishes in its restaurants. Or how about a change of country? The border with Portugal is only about 15 minutes’ drive away, so you could potentially pop over to the little coastal village of Tavira (40 minutes) for lunch instead…
