This is an old windmill at Carboneras, a Spanish coastal town in the Cabo de Gâta natural park, where we stopped overnight on the way South.

There is a nice be-palmed cycle track. We cycled out to the west of the town but there is a big industrial/port complex here which isn’t very pretty.

There is a good seafood restaurant behind these palms, to the east of the town, where Nia had Lubina, or sea bass, and I had Bacalao, or cod.

Looks good. Can I ask a question please. We are planning to go to France then through to Spain in June. As it’s our first time going to Spain in a campervan, is there anything we need extra to do paperwork wise than France, also taking a dog?
Hi Richard, no border checks France to Spain so once you are in France you just drive thru into Spain without stopping. I would bring all your dogs vaccination certificates, but we have only once , in France, been asked for them on a campsite. Never in Spain.
The bigger campsites in Spain usually want to see your passports. Small ones don’t usually bother.
Pretty relaxed here in Spain, only asked once for Covid vacc certification.
Great news, thank you for your very good reply. Just what we were hoping for.
Enjoy the weather and sunshine, wet and windy in Hampshire!

Great Blog, thanks. We stayed at the other.end of the Cabo de Gata a few years back at this time of year and found the national park almost deserted. There is some fantastic scenery. Were in the.midst of a run of Atlantic storms here. Stay south!
Will do, thanks 😂.
Lovely blue skies and very tempting food, what’s not to like? Thanks for the photos! x
Last day here today, then up country a little to Ronda.
