Nearby towns worth a visit
Here is a list of towns worth visiting if you have the time.
You will need a car for some of them.
This is our neighboring town to the west of us.
It takes just 25 mins to walk into the centre of town. One can catch the number 4 or 5 from our nearest bus stop (Los Bloques). If you want to cycle, feel free to borrow our bikes and enter the town via the riverside path and beach promenade.
A lively and busy town centre with pedestrian only streets once you’re in the heart of it.
A fabulous and recently constructed boulevard connects the centre of town to the more relaxed promenade via a lovely road lined with restaurants, cafes, parks and cycling paths.

Visit the Casco Antiguo, a historical town centre with an amazing choice of places to eat lining cute cobbled streets. I recommend that you opt for appropriate footwear when wandering through the old town!
The paseo (promenade) is also worth walking along. Access it via La Plaza de Alameda which is very cool in the summer and very pretty.
