Hi
We are travelling to La Fosca (near Palamos)and staying at a site called Camping Kings in August. I was a bit concerned about a posting that said Palamos was "not very nice". (On another website) I want some traditional spanish food, good weather, a nice beach or two, a good local market and some beach activity nearby such as boat trips or watersports. The campsite seems to have informal "nightlife" ie: disco/pool & snooker/quiz's etc which will suit our kids (we are quite happy to have a walk and a glass of wine in the evening)- is the area likely to suit us? I would hate the Lloret type of built up resort (I am sure its fine out of season but must be hell in August), any tips, advice, information, ideas for days out etc etc would be very welcome.
Whats the thought on Car Hire? We're happy walking/cycling and using public transport, whats the public transport like, we will have the cost of the airport transfer so thought it might be better to get a car for the time we're there, though its likely to be sat there on the days we're chilling out on the beach or by the pool. Does anyone know of any good local car hire firms? Thanks!
Hi,I stopped at camping kings with my family 3 years ago for a fortnights self drive holiday it was great campsite was very clean and well maintained.La fosca itself is a quiet town the beach is great.not many English people holiday in La fosca it is more popular with Spanish,French and Dutch,Palomas is nice enough but lacks a bit of charm it being made up mostly of modern appartment blocks but there is a old town quarter and that is nice there are lots other small towns and villages nearby and I would recommend car hire for a very short drive into the beautiful Catlan countryside,in short Lloret it is not.Judging by your post it is my opinion you will have a great time so stop worrying.Mark
Thanks very much for the reply Mark- I am reassured and now looking forward to my holiday!
I've added this campsite to our review site. If you have stayed here within the last 2 years would you please add your review
