  • Family-oriented site in scenic surroundings
  • Peaceful setting away from noise and pollution
  • Beauty salon, pool, beach bar and restaurant
You'll be able to spend a Spanish holiday far away from noise, pollution and crowds here: Camping El Portús is tucked away on a deep blue and stunning bay (peruse pics now, please), among jaw-dropping scenery between sea and mountains. To take yourself exploring, you won't have far to go to reach urban civilisation, as it's a 20-minute drive from here to the ancient city centre of Cartagena, and about 45 minutes to province capital Murcia. This stunning site comes with all manner of additions to keep you soothed, smoothed and stress free, like a beauty salon, sports areas including pétanque and tennis courts, an excellent playground and a spectacular pool: again, peruse pics now, please… You don't need to leave the site or food and drinks, either, as it has a restaurant, supermarket and – huzzah – a beach bar.

Powered gravel and earth site

Liked Tout! Les emplacements sont spacieux, les sanitaires impeccables. Le personnel est chaleureux que ce soit de l'accueil au supermarché et aux femmes de ménage. C'est calmé idéalement situé au bord de plages de galets. Parfait! Nous avons rallonge notre séjour de 3 nuitees car nous nous y sentions vraiment bien :)

Disliked Cela ne nous a pas dérangé personnellement mais il faudrait juste préciser a la clientèle que la plage qui n'est pas privée est naturiste a 99%....nous entendions certains clients qui en étaient assez déranges de ne pas avoir ete avisé de cela avant d'y mettre les pieds....

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Merci beaucoup pour votre retour si positif !

Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez apprécié l’emplacement spacieux, la propreté des sanitaires, la tranquillité du camping ainsi que la gentillesse de notre équipe – de l’accueil au supermarché en passant par le service de ménage.

C’est un vrai plaisir de savoir que vous vous êtes sentis si bien chez nous que vous avez prolongé votre séjour !

Merci également pour votre remarque concernant la plage naturiste. Vous avez tout à fait raison, et nous allons veiller à mieux informer nos futurs clients sur ce point afin d’éviter toute surprise.

Au plaisir de vous accueillir à nouveau pour un autre séjour tout aussi agréable,

L’équipe du camping

Liked The person on the desk was really pleasant and professional when we arrived. Simply fine. Then when we left at 7 a m the next morning because I decided I wanted to do so, she wasn’t that pleasant to my husband. Well, we paid for two nights so really she could have been more pleasant.

The campsite is ok. The burger in the cafe was ok. The beach is ok. There was nothing to complain about, even the drunken couple playing bad music loudly, as they were far enough away. Had they been next to us it would have been bad news. I would have had it stopped, but then, maybe the management should have been aware of it. People unfortunately put up with too much antisocial things as they are scared.

The showers are great.

Disliked As above.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you very much for sharing your detailed feedback.

We’re glad to hear that you appreciated the professionalism of our staff upon arrival and enjoyed the showers. It’s also good to know that, despite some disturbances, you still found the campsite and beach to be acceptable.

We’re truly sorry to hear about the unpleasant interaction at check-out and the inconvenience caused by the noisy guests. Your comments about antisocial behavior and safety are important, and we take them seriously. We are continuously working to ensure a pleasant and respectful environment for all our guests, including better handling of such situations.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention—we’ll make sure to reinforce our policies and staff training.

We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back under better circumstances.

Local attractions

As it's betwixt mountains and sea, sporty options across a range of levels and terrains are easy to find: sailing, windsurfing and diving are close to hand, as are rock climbing, hiking and golfing at several local courses. Camping El Portús has agreements with several local companies offering activities at discounted prices, so get prepped to save some euros and to get mucho active. You can't come to these parts and not have a day or two in cracking Cartagena, founded by the Carthaginians way back in the BCs. It's been under Roman, Phoenician, Byzantine and Moorish rule since then (not all at once), giving the city rich pickings for those geeky about historical highlights… Have a good long look at the Roman theatre of Carthago Nova, and the 13th-century cathedral remains with Roman mosaic floor in the crypt if you're of this bent. More modernly, Cartagena has several Art Nouveau buildings well worth a look, as well as a naval museum and a shelter museum from the Spanish Civil War. The mining town of La Unión is half an hour's drive from the site and Murcia is within 45 minutes.
