Carol and I like to head to Vela Azul ( a private chiringuito adjacent to the resort ) where we sit on this lovely terrace, drink-in-hand and i-Pod in-ear. We gaze down upon the beach and the Med in the cool shade of tall linden trees which create this oasis from the searing sun. There's lots of little places to escape both near the resort proper, or just some several minutes drive up the road.
