Day 33 and we drove to Barbate which is a coastal town located about 25km from Conil and some 11km along the coast to the east of Cape Trafalgar and within the La Breña y Marismas del Barbate Natural Park.

We hiked around the National Park, around 6 miles in total. Stunning views were to be had from the coastal path heading east into Barbate.

When we had visited Seville recently, the waitress in Puratasca had told us that the Conil area is her favourite part of Spain and provided us with 3 restaurant recommendations. One of them, El Campero was in Barbate so we decided to test out her recommendation. The second was Trasteo in Zahara de los Atunes and finally, La Fontanilla in Conil itself.

The approach to the restaurant was through several streets of run-down apartment blocks and the general feel of Barbate was something of an old fishing port which has seen better days. We were not entirely sure what to expect.

Anyhow, El Campero was just superb – including the miniature Tuna Burger – and we have two other recommendations from her so we will be sure to check them out also.
