If you are down in Santa Pola I can highly recommend checking out the bar/cafe down by the harbour - Los Curros - that is used by the fishing fleet. You can't miss it and its is superb value and great quality. It's on your left as you head past the big old fishing boat that serves as a memorial to the sea-faring history of this lovely, vibrant town. But just behind it, on the beach and built over as part of the foundations for the harbour wall, you will find half a bunker that is a another remnant from the Mediterranean Wall that stretched along this part of the coast to resist sea-borne nationalist invasion. Smothered in graffiti it serves as another lasting reminder of this areas Civil War history. UPDATE. On a recent return I was pleased to see that the graffiti had been cleaned off, the food and drink was also still superb.
