A thriving and rapidly expanding town. Very little sign of tourism, although there are a couple of British pubs and a "Paper Shop" selling UK papers. Many expatriates live in the area, but it is predominantly Spanish.
A large market takes place on Sunday mornings (when some of the other shops are open too), and is an excellent place to have something to eat in the evening. There are lots of open air tables where it’s entertaining to just sit and watch the Spanish go by.
Just outside is afun restaurant, El Tintero Campero, about 3-4 km from Cartama Estación - it's outside, under shade, with huge trestle tables and paper tablecloths. The waiters run around the place with plates full of different things (seafood, barbequed meats, salads etc) and you just stop them when you see something you like. Most just put the plates in the middle of the table and everyone can help themselves. It's very reasonably priced. The only time to go is Sunday lunchtime – try it!
