Capellania Anglicana de la Costa Blanca
El Campello
About the church:
We meet in a chapel in the grounds of Los Salesianos at 12.00 noon every Sunday. Our friendly congregation comes from the area round Alicante, and after the service there is always an opportunity to take a picnic to the beach or to have it in the shady grounds of the church.
Whilst we have a committed local congregation, we always look forward to meeting people on holiday in the area . After the service there is a time for fellowship and refreshments.
We have a number of social events during the course of the year. Some of these are for fund raising and some just for social time together.
Transport links are good with the tram running along the coast, and we are just a short walk from there. Please come and join us, whether you are resident here or on a sunshine break.
Directions:
Los Salesianos is just off the sea-front at the northern end of Playa Muchavista. It is accessible from the sea-front both from Campello centre, and from San Juan, as well as from the N332 and A70 motorway.
From the A70 motorway:
Take exit (67) and follow signs to El Campello which will bring you on to the N332 northbound to Valencia.
There may well be traffic backed up to the next set of traffic lights, where you will turn off to the right. Continue as far as possible on the slip-road, without joining the main stream, and you will soon see a sign to La Font (right) just before the lights.
It is possible to access this turning from the slip-road by staying in the right-hand lane. Turn right to La Font. Then see below ´Continuing Instructions from A70 & N332 routes´ Approaching south on the N332:
Pass through upper Campello on the main road, until you come to the second main junction at traffic lights, with the sign to La Font. Turn left across main road using the turning lane.
Then see below ´Continuing Instructions from A70 & N332 routes´ Continuing Intructions from A70 & N332 routes:
Continue to the end of this residential street until the T junction at the end. Turn left, and continue to the end where the road ahead opens up into fields. Cross the junction, continuing straight ahead.
Continue through open ground. This is a one-way road, but you may encounter traffic approaching. At the end, you will see on your left the gates of Los Salesianos. Turn in, go round central roundabout to your left, and park where you can.
If approaching along the sea-front from Campello centre:
Continue south around the headland until you approach the start of Playa Muchavista, with apartment blocks on your right. You will see on your right a turning with a No Entry sign (access for Residents & the School only) and the railway bridge. Turn right here, and continue straight ahead at the top of the hill, where you will see the gates of Los Salesianos.
If approaching along the sea-front from San Juan:
Continue along Playa Muchavista, and through the one-way system where the railway is elevated to your left. Straight on at the traffic lights, and look for No Entry turning to your left (see previous paragraph) and turn left here.
From the Car Park:
Walk back to the main church to the right and ahead of the entrance gates. Go through the green gates to the right of the church entrance, or if these are locked, walk through Reception, and walk to the far end of the cloisters. Turn right at the end, and the door ahead (in the far right-hand corner of the cloisters) leads to the chapel where we meet for worship.
To exit in all directions:
Leave by main gates, and go down the hill ahead to the sea-front.
To return to Campello: Turn left at traffic lights
To return to San Juan: N332 and A70 turn right, and continue to the next set of lights where you must turn right again. Drive up the hill, and stay in the right-hand lane. At the T junction, turn right. Continue for about 10 metres, until you reach four-way crossroads, and turn left.
Continue until the first turning right, and return to the N332 junction and traffic-lights. Join the N332: for A70 turn left using turning lane, and continue to A70 slip-road ahead.
NB: There is also a train/tram station at Los Salesianos just to the sea-side of the school.
