Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    If like my husband you struggle on hills then this place is ideal, a beautiful clean long promonade. Not all built up like some of the Costa de Sol, restaurants dotted here and there and some shope, even an open air church It is very clean and the beach is kept immaculate. Visited mainly by the Spanish, it is rrally a good location for a break.

    The Castle was a small artillery fort with a round tower on each corner, heavily restored after a lightning strike ignited the gunpowder store which destroyed one tower and then a few years later an earthquake badly damaged what was left.
    It is now used as an arts and exhibition centre. Inside was a model boat exhibition, ranging from 15th century galleys, HMS Victory, Colombus' 3 ships, a Viking longship and then more modern fishing vessels and steamers.
    There was a photography exhibition and also a large display of Goya's prints of French war crimes in the Peninsula War. Free to enter and a nice way to spend an hour.

    Just a very pleasant area to relax and enjoy. Good variety of restaurants and bars. Things tend to run down at the end of September/October.

    I had a self catering apartment so appreciated the fresh fruits, veggies, bread and dried goods! Quite crowded so go early. Nice to stop and have a coffee with churros.

    We were staying in Roquetas De Mar for a week, always like to take in the local culture so visited the Bullring....these places are incredible, how they ever built them is amazing.
    It was bullfighting season, and although we didn’t actually see a real live fight, the place was awesome, with a small museum too showing all the Matadors fantastic outfits.
    Worth a visit.
    Later the same week we stumbled across live tv coverage of same bullring with bullfighting going on (only watched one as quite bloody, but heho, its Spanish tradition)

    Wow a small aquarium. Nice enough. Cost 20 euros each. Worth about 5. Check opening hours on official site, Google had it wrong when we went.

    The promenade, cycle and walking paths finish right at the entrance to the park. It's has lovely tracks to run or walk around and some attractions to have a stop and look at in the middle. If you like to walk or run, is a nice alternative to the road/promenade.

    We stayed in the Moon & Spa Hotel which is inside the port area so we had views over the port from the terrace of the hotel.
    This port is very nicely done, you can get free parking for 30 minutes before you have to pay.
    There are plenty of bars and restaurants within the port and a small night market.
    We went on a boat trip which leaves from inside the port and also there are many more activities available if you wish, scuba diving, jet skiing etc.

    This place is absolutely worth the time. In there you can find all types of fishes, meat and vegetables available in Roquetas.

    The bars in the place also serve fresh fishes in tapas and have a great choice available.

    This beach or playa here in Roquetas de Mar is situated just after the small puerto and runs for quite a long way towards Aguadulce. There are several tapas bars and restaurants behind the beach on a promenade that is nice to walk along.
    The beach is clean with nice sand, ideal for families with children.

    Big shopping centre with a range of shops from around the world, including Primark and Flying Tiger. There were also many designer stores and jewellers. Huge supermarket was great.
    Food court upstairs with, again, a wide range of options from all around the world was a fantastic way to end our trip here.
    Toilets could have done with a clean but were free unlike most.
    Good public transport links to Roquetas De Mar.
