Beach parking, unsafe overnight
2 Pasaje Cala Cortina, 30202, Cartagena
Been here?
A beachside parking area with access to Cala Cortina and its restaurant, but recent reports describe crowded conditions and serious cleanliness and safety concerns. Motorhomes are prohibited in the main parking lot, while parking along the curb has been used instead. The surface is uneven in places, and police have been present. It may be acceptable as a brief stop, but overnight conditions have been reported as unsafe.

Very quiet, including at night. The beach is just a short walk away.Translating
When we arrived, we saw the sign prohibiting motorhomes in the main parking lot. So we parked in the other parking area along the curb. Right after that, a police car showed up. There was also a man watching the cars and asking for money. The beach is beautiful. It was very crowded. We only spent the day there.
A super-quiet and lovely spot, with beautiful surroundings 300 meters away. Flat in some places.Translating
Fine for an emergency stop and one night, but no more.Translating
A campsite, okay in the evening if you come to look around. Immigrants in groups; we ran for our lives and left immediately. Very, very dangerous overnight.Translating
Could have been a nice place. I left again after 4 hours. Lots of rubbish. Large ships cause infrasound on the slope. Hardly any level areas. No mobile reception. The police were there for a long time but said nothing.Translating
Nice and quiet, close to the seaTranslating
Great spot for one night, small, well-maintained beach with a magnificent sunsetTranslating
Easy access, slightly sloping ground. Easy access to the beach. But everything is dirty, with papers, cans and other rubbish strewn across the ground. Also noisy because of the road and cars coming to drift or play loud music in the other car park above. What a shame.Translating
Vehicles over 3.5 tonnes are not permitted to use the access road!!!Translating
We arrived in the early evening in February 2024. The car park was filthy, with rubbish and used condoms on the ground, and felt unsafe. We did not stay and moved to the car park opposite the harbour.Translating
