Home description
The apartment is just one of six in a small block on a quiet village road only 100 metres from the immediate beach and surrounded by other small coves for swimming, picnics and snorkelling.
Pozo del Esparto, with a backdrop of mountains, is a small seaside village with 3 restaurants, a bar on the beach and a daily bread delivery van. It is only a 3 to 4 minute drive or a pleasant beach walk to the small town of St Juan de los Terreros which has supermarkets, restaurants, tapas bars, disco, internet cafes, Sunday market and boardwalk.
It is situated on the north coast of Almeria, the only remaining natural coastline of the Spanish mediterranean. The region, being relatively unknown, is the undiscovered Costa and one of the driest and sunniest areas in Europe with 320 days of sun. It has the best natural beaches with hidden coves and interesting cliffs. Resorts in this area cater more for families, golfers, walkers, cyclists, relaxation seekers and messing around on the sea.
The nearby town of Aguilas (10 minutes), the fishing port of Garrucha (15 minutes), and holiday resort of Mojacar (20 minutes) offer the visitor a diverse range of interests and activities. The famous Desert Springs Golf course (20 minutes) is open to non-members and there are two other golf courses just 5 minutes away. There are mini-cruises from Garrucha to Cabo de Gata, and also local boat and fishing trips.
Approximately 45 minutes drive along the stunning coastal is the beautiful wild nature reserve of Cabo de Gata, a paradise for nature lovers and naturists with windswept deserted beaches, fabulous walks and rock formations, and delightful villages.
Head inland to the Sierra Nevadas for great skiing and the famous city of Granada (2 hours drive) with its beautiful Al Hambra palaces. You can also visit Mini Hollywood in the Tabernas desert region with its daily shows of gunfights and riding.
