The Costa de Almeria region

The region of Almeria is one of the most charming and unspoilt areas in south-eastern Spain. Enjoying the sunniest and warmest climate in the whole of Europe, it is known as ‘El Rincon del Embrujo’ or ‘the corner of enchantment’. 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.

This is the driest part of Europe with approximately 320 days of sunshine each year, The Almeria region is agricultural, with many greenhouses and fields growing a variety of produce such as tomatoes, lettuces, melons, lemons, oranges and olives. The Almeria region is one of the last parts of Spain to be developed, and does not have the mass tourism of the other 'costas'. This is the real Spain!

Mojacar / Playa Macenas area

Mojacar Playa has been developed over the last two decades and is a lively resort with a lot to offer Its beaches are 17km long but only 7km have been developed and the majority of the remainder being designated an area of beauty.

There is a full range of water sports including water skiing, jet skiing, wind surfing, sailing and diving.

The promenade offers a variety of beach bars, restaurants both local and international, hotels, discos and shops, there is also the Parque Commercial shopping centre selling a range of items including clothes, china, souvenirs along with café bar's to relax with a sangria whilst having lunch.

Mojacar Pueblo is a picturesque sight of white washed buildings and steep winding cobbled streets perched high on a hill in the Sierra Cabrera, that overlooks the Mediterranean Sea.
Mojacar was a trade centre for the Greeks and Romans but the Moorish influence is the most visible dating from the 8th century.

There are a number of historical places of interest in Mojacar including La Fuenta (fountain), this is where women wash their clothes and feet in the natural spring water which is said to have flowed here since the Roman times, it was restored in 1876. The Ancient Castillo which dominates the village is now an open viewing platform. Puerta de la Ciudad ( city gate), a semi-circular arch featuring the arms of the town, this is the original site of the main entrance to the village since the Moorish times.

The symbol of Mojacar is the Indalo Man, which is the shape of a man holding an arc between his outstretched arms, It is often painted on the front of houses and is said to bring protection and good luck. The symbol is associated with neolithic paintings found in the caves of Velez Blanco and is thought to be 4500 years old.

Mojacar Pueblo holds a market on Wednesdays and a flea market on Sundays. In June each year there is a Moors and Christians festival which lasts for 3 days, this is well worth seeing, the two sides stage mock battles and true to history the Christians are always victorious.

The Central Commercial Mediterraneo - with many different shops,eg, clothes,jewellery,shoes,ceramics,rugs,including several coffee shops on the three levels.
There are local fiestas on May 15, June 10 and 24, August 28 and October 7.

If thats not enough for you there is also the Indalo Wings Micro light Centre where you can have a flight in a micro light or even have a go at para gliding.
