The Costa de Almeria region
Generally you will soon discover that Almerimar is about relaxing, it is very peaceful with a quiet atmosphere not ruined by mass tourism. The locals live here all year round and help to maintain the “Real Spanish feel”, yet are happy to include you in to their way of life and indeed them in ours. This said, with a little effort you can find more than enough to do for the entire family, whether it be a day at the beach or a day site seeing. We are sure, like past customers, Almerimar will put your faith back in Spain as a holiday destination.
In Almerimar you do have everything you need, with a Supermarket, small shops and many bars and restaurants scattered around the Marina. Our favourite part of the Marina is the Square in the last section as you drive round the one way road. Here you will find McGowan’s, Calitas, The Gourmet, Bar Fossil among other nice bars and restaurants. In the square the kids are left to play, both locals and holidaymakers alike, whist you enjoy a beer or a glass of wine in good company. Nights out are generally best spent at the various restaurants scattered around the Marina. There are various types of restaurants, all welcoming to kids, all reasonably priced and pretty much all of them serving great food, wine, beers etc…
Near the Marina is a supermarket which has everything you will need for your stay. The Seafood counter is amazing, with an array of fish and shellfish straight from the Med and on to your plate.
If you feel like a taste of home, try Bar Bahia for great English food. The bar is the first you come to when driving in to the Marina.
If you would like to go shopping, you can visit the Copo Shopping Centre just off the Motorway, near the Tourist Information Centre. Here you will find all sorts of clothes, jewellery, electrical shops etc, with restaurants, Go carting and of course the large McDonald’s with play area.
Other activities available in Almerimar include:- Horse Riding Boat Trips Fishing Wind Surfing Diving
DAYS OUT / THINGS TO DO:-
SAN JOSE & CABO DE GATO (Natural Park) Approx 45 mins drive: San Jose is a traditional Spanish town with windy streets, little bars and restaurants. It has a great family beach open all year round. There are 2 world renowned beaches in the Cabo de Gato a stones throw from San Jose which is well worth the extra drive. (Voted in top 10 beaches in Europe).
TEXAS HOLLYWOOD Approx 45 mins Drive: Where films such as “The good the bad and the ugly” & “A fist full of dollars” were filmed. An all round decent day out with polls, real life shows, film sets, restaurants, a small Zoo and rides for the kids.
GO CARTING: At Copo Shopping Centre, about 5 mins drive from house there is Go Carting track great for the kids. For a bigger Go Carting experience there is a large outdoor circuit on the way in to Roquetas del mar
ROQUETAS DEL MAR: At about 30mins drive away you can visit the largest coastal resort in Almeria, with more life and things to do such as a Water Park, Karaoke bars, English bars, Spanish Tapas Bars, a great Beach and all your big resort amenities,. There is a large shopping centre here called “Gran Plaza” which has all the shops & eateries you could wish for (Including Top shop / Top man, Dorothy Perkins, Zara and many more.) There is also a great Arcade & Ten Pin Bowling ally here too, well worth a visit.
CELIN Traditional small Spanish village about 20 mins drive: If you fancy a BBQ traditional Spanish style you can visit Celin in the mountains. This is a typical tiny Spanish village which has not moved with the time. Go there on a Sunday and follow the sign for “Walkers”. You will come to a natural spring from the mountains in to which walks have been laid out. The Spanish come here every weekend to have a BBQ, drink their wine cooled by the spring water and watch the kids playing, very traditional.
ALMERIA – Capital city of Almeria about 30mins drive Obviously being the capital of Almeria it has many things to do and see. It has all the typical aspects of a coastal resort but is also steeped in history. The fortress is a great half day trip finished off with a nice meal in the Marina.
GRANADA / SIERRA NEVADA: 2 hours drive For the more adventurous you can travel to Granada, the most visited city in Spain. This is a beautiful town that has kept its traditional charm whist embracing the present. The Alhambra palace is a whole day’s trip so would warrant an overnight stay, which you wouldn’t regret as there is so much to see & do. Just past Granada is the Sierra Nevada, the tallest mountain range in Spain. The 2000 winter Olympics were held here and has everything you would expect from a Ski Resort. Although open all year round we would only recommend that you visit here in the winter, indeed, you can hire ski equipment should you wish to spend a day on the slopes.
Almerimar / Laguna Beach, Almerimar area
On a clear day in the winter months the snow capped mountains of Sierra Nevada can be seen in the distance from the bedroom window which hosts the popular and most southerly European ski resort.
In the summer months, those who fancy a trip around the bay can usually find a suitable vessel to take them and those who prefer to stay on dry land will find that there is plenty to enjoy within the confines of the marina, with bars, restaurants, shops, salons and even a gymnasium for those who want to keep fit. The modern marina is full of various craft shops and is where one can enjoy a drink in a bar or a good meal in a restaurant, perhaps sampling the local fisherman's catch. As anywhere abroad you will find numerous bars around the marina, all serving cheap drinks till the early hours, don't be fooled though, the bars, like the restaurants are for relaxing and unwinding. However, if you want it, you can find it, there are a few discos and lively bars but not enough to spoil the peace and relaxation of the marina.
With the blue flag award winning beach only metres away from the marina and its 18 hole championship golf course, Almerimar is a delightful resort set amidst some of Spain's finest scenery highlighted by a backdrop of the Sierra Nevada snow capped mountains. The climate is the best in Spain, with average temperatures of 28 degrees centigrade during the summer and only 25mm of rainfall per year. Local activities include Diving, Sailing, Boat Trips, Fishing, Horse Riding, a Water Park (in Roquetas De Mar) and just outside Almerimar is a shopping centre (including a supermarket), an excellent Tourist Information Centre and Cinema.
The great 27 hole golf course designed by Gary Player costs between 40 & 80 euros per round, you can hire buggies, clubs etc, at additional costs. Dress code is smart casual and trainers may be worn. There are 3 other golf courses within a 20 - 30 minute drive of Almerimar, more information can be obtained from the local tourist information centre. Other courses in the area are:-
~ La Envia - A challenging course, rounded off by a bite to eat on the terrace which has absolutely fantastic view ~ Playa Serena - Next to the sea in Roquetas Del Mar, good all round course. ~ Desert Springs - As it sounds, a bit of green in the middle of a desert, incredible course, just watch your clubs and bring some spare balls.
