Along the coast - small breaks by the sea Day 4
We've been traveling since Wednesday – and today we continued towards Barcelona.
But just driving straight through? No, that would have been too much of a shame.
On the way, we made a really nice stop: the Plaza de toros de Oropesa.
A small, almost secret place – a hidden terrace with an incredible view of the vast, blue Mediterranean Sea.
Here we briefly paused: fresh orange juice in hand, sun on our face, the sound of the sea in our ears. A view of the open sea. Simply perfect.
After this relaxed break, we got back in the car – and about an hour later, we arrived at our new temporary home: a 4-star campsite directly by the sea.
And what a place it is!
• A restaurant with a sea view, perfect for long evenings
• 4 pools to dive into and dream
• Direct access to a small, beautiful sea cove
• Tennis courts for sporty hours
• And everything else that makes a camper's heart happy: washing machine, dryer, dishwasher…and so on....
Internet is almost non-existent, which is sometimes an advantage. 😁
With an excellent view of the Ebro Delta - the alluvial plain at the mouth of the Ebro River into the Mediterranean. (Catalonia region)
Here we will stay for now – with a view of the Ebro Delta, sand between our toes, the sound of the waves in the background, and a lot of anticipation for the days to come.
