Playa del Arbeyal

In itself, it is a camper site that is acceptable, but we went elsewhere because we were parked among a number of "permanent residents". We like quiet nights, and it seemed like that wasn't going to happen.

Great place to visit Gijon. A few minutes' bike ride to the center. There are technically 18 spots. There were at least 80 campers in the adjacent parking lot. This is allowed. Despite the many campers, it was quiet. It is located next to an industrial port, but you are not bothered by that. People who complain that the location isn't top-notch should take another look at the definition of free.

Beautiful spot by the beach. Only during the work week do a lot of trucks pass by that need to be at the industrial estate at the port, and that does cause some noise early in the morning. It is much quieter during the weekend.
