In Puerto Piramides

- Camping with access to the municipal beach, but the toilets are rather rudimentary. Leaves to make a cross on comfort, all make a night camping in Punta Pardela ... unforgettable! - Hotel ACA: about 35 € the double room, no frills, but with a sea view restaurant does not defend bad either ...
