The best spots to photograph in Benidorm

July and August are the most wanted months of the year, as they are mainly the months to go on holiday, to disconnect from the routine and finally to take a rest.


Everyone likes to enjoy their favorite places with friends and family, but we also love, and more today, to remember and to show off those days of leisure in Benidorm and so deserved fun.

And what better way to revive those moments than through photographs? It is very nice to show the places you've visited, and the experiences that you have lived when you return from your holidays.

Even more today, where everyone has a camera on their mobile phone.

From the Camping Villamar we advise you to visit the most beautiful places in Benidorm, where a few snapshots will not just stay in our minds, but also can be shown the rest of the world.

These are those sites that you cannot miss if you visit our city, and that are sure to fall in love with.

1. One of the most emblematic sightseeing places is Benidorm island. This island also called the Island of Journalists is located in line with Punta Canfali, that divides Benidorm into two beaches: Levante and Poniente.




It is not allowed to spend the night there, but you can spend the day and enjoy the incredible views and restaurant. There are several companies that allow you to observe the seabed of the island, and it can also be explored on foot, enjoying the beautiful views that offers the Bay of Benidorm.

2. Another place we cannot leave without visiting is the promontory lookout of Benidorm. Located in an outgoing seafront area of the city, this viewpoint gives us incredible views of the sea and the beaches there.


Pentagon-like shaped and with a large surface , it allows us to go with your family and friends, and take us some photographs with spectacular views.

3. The Benidorm Cross is a site that only a few tourists know. Located in the top of the “Sierra Helada”, this place offers a panoramic view over the city and all its skyline.

This cross was placed here in 1961 in a Catholic mission whose purpose it was to redeem the city of its reputation as a sinner.

4. If what we like, besides photography, is also enjoying a walk, we will show different landscapes that are worth taking photographs of, the perfect plan is to make the route of “the antennas”, so called because it ends at the antennas of the city and the Albir lighthouse.

This path is located on the top of the mountain of the Sierra Helada, it has many ups and downs and shows a very different perspective of Benidorm with huge, jagged cliffs and sea background.

5. Finally, and as an essential view of the Skyline of Benidorm, is highly recommended to go up to the terrace of an hotel or campsite in Benidorm.

Advantages of summer holidays at a campsite in Benidorm

There are numerous types of accommodations in Benidorm to choose, as where we prefer to spend the holidays. Among them and less known are the campsites.


They have a unique and incomparable atmosphere that inspires freedom, nature, being relaxed in a different environment. Many people choose campsites Benidorm rather than hotels or apartments. But for everything there is a reason, or a few.


From the campsites Villasol and Villamar we will display in a list some of the biggest advantages of choosing the camp as a form of vacation:


  • The campsites are suitable for all audiences, from the youngest to the oldest. They are perfect to go with family but also with your group of friends. 
  • The prices of campsites are usually cheaper than hotels, so you could use to enjoy more days in this accommodation. 
  • There is greater freedom in schedules and clothing. In this sense it is more comfortable than a hotel. No etiquette and you can freely walk around the campsite at any time. This is a real advantage when traveling with children and the holidays become as more informal. Besides the extensive outdoor spaces with campsites is paradise for the smaller ones to play games while their parents can relax. 
  • Normally on campsites there is a wide range of activities to do on site. Every decent site today has a full entertainment program during the peak season. This is a plus not only for children, they will enjoy as anyone, but for the elderly, who can join in the fun or spend those little moments of relaxation. 
  • The nature: this is one of the reasons why most customers choose campsites. Most of them are in environments surrounded by greenery or beach, with beautiful landscapes to walk through, a step away from accommodation. A luxury for the more adventurous and athletes. 
  • No need to leave the camping to buy everyday products, or just for lunch something. Most campsites have shops and restaurants to not leave the grounds if you do not want. 
  • Parking: perhaps this is a problem in the hotel areas, campsites but this is an advantage; it has plenty of room to park vehicles, so no hours are lost looking for parking. 
  • The food can be prepared in the plot itself. Campsites have shops and restaurants but also give the option you can make your own food, which besides of being comfortable is cheaper than eating and dining out. What would a camping be without the typical barbecue? 
  • You make new Friends: at the end staying in a camping means that there are no walls or boundaries when interacting with tenants of the adjoining plot. In many cases this causes you can meet families that initially were not known. This social aspect of campsites also attracts many people.
