Summer arrives and this means only one thing: holidays.<\/strong> No more stress and hurry or endless hours in front of the computer and it was time to spend a relaxing holiday in Huelva with children, since summer is time to enjoy a leisure time with the family. And what better place to go on holiday with children than El Rompido,<\/strong> where you can enjoy a privileged natural space, in front of the marshes of the Piedras River and Flecha del Rompido. This Huelva paradise for some families means adventure, but for others it is synonymous with rest. Be that as it may, take the children and take them to see El Rompido.<\/p>\n

That’s why we select some activities that all types of families can do. There they go:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

FLECHA DE EL ROMPIDO WILD BEACH<\/h2>\n

\"Playa<\/p>\n

The beach of El Rompido is a special paradise reserved for a few. You have to take a boat to go there and hotel guests do not go there very often because they’d rather stay in the swimming-pool. Kids will love the bustle of coming and going on the boat, and so do we really, so what may seem like a hassle turns into an adventure.<\/p>\n

Once you reach La Flecha, you can access the beach via the designated walkways that cross the dune area. Ferry services operate mainly during the summer and depart from different points, so it\u2019s a good idea to check the timetables before planning your day. Once on the beach, you\u2019ll find miles of sand where you can enjoy a day out with the whole family.<\/p>\n
