Where today's Estepona to Algatocin road (MA-536) crosses the Genal River by the Puente de San Juan, you can find a popular roadside restaurant called Venta de San Juan and two campsites (one of which is called Camping Genal).
Camping Genal is located in deep in the Genal river valley between Jubrique and Algatocin on the MA-8305 road. A secluded area very quiet and great for kids to play safely outside. It is a superb location right beside the Genal river in a woodland location. Swimming is popular in the river in the summer months.
