For a quieter alternative to the crowded Costa del Sol, try a holiday on the Costa Tropical, the coast of Andalucia’s Granada province, with tourism centres at Almunecar and La Herradura. With the impressive Sierra Nevada mountain range dropping down to unspoilt beaches and tranquil coves, there are times of year when it is possible to ski in the morning and swim in the warm sea in the afternoon. Rent an apartment in the vibrant university city of Granada and explore the stunning Alhambra Palace, take in a Flamenco show, and enjoy generous portions of tapas. If you want to get away from it all, stay in a self-catering villa, farmhouse or even a cave house in a secluded spot in the Andalucian countryside for a laidback, authentically Spanish holiday.
