We went in this trip yesterday. It was pleasant enough drive with a few things to see along the way. Especially the goats in the trees, sadly though they do have to stand on their little perch for a long time in the heat to entertain passers-by by for tips. We felt quit bad for them.
The town is very historic with a busy medina. It was nice exploring the narrow lanes and stalls. The locals were very friendly and hospitable.
I would however say that we were left for 4 hours before we were picked up for the return journey. Much too long in our opinion.

Highly recommended excursion, a walled and very well preserved fishing village.
The guy who took us was a professional, driving the minibus of 10 and speaking perfect Spanish, giving us all the explanations to our questions.
