Is there anyone who doesn't go to Benidorm?

As above, CMC rally or independent?

I think a good few of those are 60+ and some 70+. The 40 something's look in short supply. :rofl:

Nice to see people enjoying themselves though. Hope you are in fine fettle Lee?
More than a good few :rofl:

Most of us have more energy than some 40+ - if last night’s dance floor was anything to go by 💃🏽

Motorhomers will cover a very wide spectrum with their likes and dislikes, ranging from those who always gravitate to larger, fully equiped sites where they can feel comfortable meeting similar people each time, know what to expect before they arrive, be happy amongst crowds and settled in their expectations.
On the other end of this spectrum there will be the ones who always wild camp well away from the hurley-burley, don't know where they'll end up each night, can relax in their own company and not need others to enjoy their time away, want to explore other countries, peoples, cultures, scenery and are always wondering what there is to discover just around the next bend.
I fall toward the latter end of this, and yes I have been to Benidorm, along with other large holiday complex type places in several countries.
None of us are wrong but few of us seem to be able to appreciate that we are diverse.
My favourite type of places are these :- photos taken while 'off grid' in Crete, Vulcano and SW France

Lovely beach but looks at all those people..

"All those people" are just strolling along in the sunshine on a car free promenade.
And most of the people you can see are in fact Spanish. Benidorm is also a go to place for Spanish holidaymakers because everywhere is predominantly open. And there is lots of entertainment available at low prices or just for the price of a drink.

So, it’s my first time staying at Benidorm (Pauline) my friend says I’m a snob for various reasons. The year I met Michael (45 years ago) he had booked to come here with his friends and I had booked to go to Lido di Jesolo in Italy so he reckons I’m a posh bird. We’ve always said we wouldn’t come here and spent the last few Winters further up the coast at that well known campsite beginning with B in Benicassim. We’ve had some fantastic times there but decided to have a change this year. Benidorm is Benidorm but you can take or leave all that goes on here and there’s plenty of life, beautiful campsites and we know there are some fantastic places a car, bus or tram ride away. We are all different and it’s a good job we are.
