El Campello (Alicante, Valencian Community)

El Campello

Alicante-Alacant

Its natural surroundings and kilometres of beaches and coves make this an ideal destination for a range of sports.

El Campello is about 14 kilometres from Alicante. Situated in the heart of the Costa Blanca, it has 23 kilometres of coastline with beautiful beaches offering a landscape of contrasts. Along with broad, sandy beaches such as Muchavista, there are also cliffs and small coves, such as those of La Coveta Fuma or La Venta La Nuza. Its crystal clear waters and excellent year-round weather make this an ideal place for water sports such as sailing, scuba diving and windsurfing. In fact, El Campello has a Marina and a Sailing Club. Hiking and cycling routes in the surrounding mountains are other activities available here. In one of these mountains you will find the Canalobre Caves, of great speleological interest. During Easter week, the Naucotur fair is held here - it focuses on sailing, trade and tourism. It is also well worth going to the fish auction held every afternoon of the year, Monday-Friday, at the Market on the Port.
