The Costa de Almeria region

The Costa Almeria is as varied as any of the Spanish Coasts. The coast is completely unspoilt. To the east of Almeria we find the rugged and desolate coast of the Cabo de Gata - Nijar natural park. This is an arid desert landscape and the annual rainfall here is less than 200mm.

It is sparsely populated, few villages and a very low population density. Visitors feel a sense of exploration here as many of the coves can only be reached on foot. This area is particularly popular with nature lovers and back-packers.

Almeria city is worth a visit with the Alcazaba castle overlooking the metropolis.

To the west we find the developing complex of ALMERIMAR with Marinas, golf, beaches and many other facilities.

Almeria is becoming more and more well known with tourists, as you enter Almeria the first thing you will notice is the countryside and authenticity of this area. As you head inland the terrain becomes quite stark and almost moon like. Due to the unique landscape of inland Almeria many movies about other planets are filmed on location in Almeria. Within the desert areas of Almeria many westerns were filmed including the famous Clint Eastwood series of Spaghetti westerns.

As the dry landscape might suggest, Almeria is by far the warmest province in the whole of Andalucia. The area is also lucky to benefit from the protection of the elements by the Sierra de Gador mountains making it a highly productive agricultural area. In fact many of Europe's vegetables are now exported from Almeria.

The Costa Almeria is relatively unspoilt and the beaches remain rustic and authentic is most places. There are some main beaches that have become very popular with tourists such as Roqutas de Mar and those at Mojacar and more areas are now becoming inhabited by expatriates looking for the more authentic Spain. In the eastern section of Almeria is the sparse coast called the "Cabo del Gato - Nijar". In this area do not expect much more than 200mm of rainfall per year. The area has a very small population within the small villages scattered around.

The Almerimar / Portofino Complex area

Almerimar is a modern resort located in the region of Andalucia, Spain, in the province of Almeria. The nearest airport is 30km away in Almeria, its situated approx 30 km west of Almería City and 160 km east of Malaga.
