190 Calle Venus, 03184, Torrevieja
Been here?
A parking place in a residential area near a bar and the pink lake, which is about 5-10 min away on foot. Nights can be quiet, but bar music may continue late and local people have challenged or threatened overnight campers. A recent incident involved a demand to leave within 10 minutes the following morning. There are no services, and the area is also used to visit the lake.

After arriving around 9 p.m., we spent a very peaceful night. However, the next morning, as mentioned in several other comments, a man in an SUV came by and signaled that we should leave within 10 minutes. He threatened us with a raised fist. We will not spend the night there again.
Very quiet night, we were the only camper, but it felt safe because it is surrounded by small inhabited houses. Close to access to a small “beach” on the lake, frequented at sunset. The lake is not pink at the moment, perhaps because of the heavy rain two days ago.
At the location shown in the first photo, when I was already parked at night, a man approached me and told me not to park there overnight because I would be reported. I preferred not to take the risk and left for another place. We are not welcome here, or at least that was my impression.
A little around the corner from this spot. Beautiful location, with direct access to Pink Lake. But it is among the local residents’ houses, so keep that in mind. Do not park right in front of their doors. Then there is no problem at all. And no chairs outside, because otherwise we will eventually lose these great locations. I enjoyed it and had a wonderfully peaceful night. I would gladly come back. 6 m campervan.
A local guy passed by and threatened us to leave in 30mins or a car truck will come pick up the van
Nice place to stop and go down to the pink lake. Very quiet and easy to Cole here with a 7m car
It works for one night; there is a bar next door and the music continued late into the night. This morning, when we woke up, a man in a black car came to tell us that we must not park here. We were not disturbing anyone. There were two motorhomes staying overnight.
It is okay for taking photos of Pink Lake, but do not stay away from your van or motorhome any longer than necessary. I was away for only 15 minutes and was followed to the fence by an older man who apparently wanted to know exactly what I was doing. On the way back, the man kept looking toward the parking area as if signaling to someone. I quickly returned to the van and drove on.
laguna rosa about 5-10 min walk away. didn't feel too safe to park the van as we saw reviews of parkups a little further down the road with break-ins, but there were a few other vans around the area. parked for about an hour and everything was fine.
We ate next door at Sofia, menu €12. Toilets available there. Rubbish containers nearby. No water or waste services. We slept peacefully for one night. Optimal access to the pink lagoon. Since there are also rainwater ditches around the lagoon, there are many mosquitoes. Little traffic in autumn, and space for large motorhomes. We would come again.
Parking lot in a residential area. We did not spend the night here, we just parked for an hour to visit the salinas.
