Tomatina accommodation in Bunol



Tomatina accomodation, Tomatina Girl
Where to stay Bunol is a small Spanish town with little accomodation. Look for your quality hotels and cheap accommodation in Valencia here.

Equipment for the Tomatina I would recommend wearing a snorkelling mask for best visibility, not goggles as they have more limited vision. If you want to take pictures get a waterproof camera, as everything in sight will be covered with tomatoes.
