Resort Information for Costa Tropical, spain
Holidays in Almunecar, Costa Tropical, Spain
- A pretty place to visit if you wish to get away from some of the more touristy, developed areas in Spain.
Almuñécar and La Herradura form the tourist capital of the Costa Tropical.
This relatively unknown stretch of Spain's southern coastline belongs to
Granada province in Andalucia. It lies between the more populous Costa del
Sol to the west, and the coast of Almería to the east. It's here that the
continent of Africa is trying, and noticeably succeeding, to push its way
under the mass of Europe. The dramatic results are what give the Costa
Tropical its special geography and climate, so unlike any other coastline
in southern Spain. Rugged hills thrust up steeply from valley floors or
plunge into the sea. Seasonal torrents, often swollen by melting snows,
cut jagged ravines deep into the landscape. Once-forrested hillsides, now
denuded of their fertile topsoil, provide a scanty foothold for almond,
olive and the hardy carob. Small villages and farming communities have
developed in sheltered valleys or simply cling like limpets to the
hillsides. A pretty place to visit if you wish to get away from some of
the more touristy, developed areas in Spain.
Holidays in Motril, Costa Tropical, Spain
- This is the biggest town on the Costa with a thriving commercial, fishing and leisure port.
The town of Motril is located in the Spanish region of Andalucia on the
Costa Tropical. This is the biggest town on the Costa with a thriving
commercial, fishing and leisure port. You'll find Motril midway between
the resorts of Malaga to the west and Almeria to the east. Nestling at the
foothills of the Sierra Lujar mountains, Motril lies at the heart of the
Costa Tropical which is one of the most lush and productive agricultural
areas of Spain. The Costa takes its name from the sub-tropical climate
which enables the cultivation of exotic fruits and crops such as sugar
cane, oranges, lemons, custard apples, avocadoes, mangoes and bananas.
With warm winters and long hot summers giving an average year round
temperature of 20C, this area is a magnet for Spanish and foreign visitors
alike. Motril is the Costa's main shopping centre with a hypermarket on
the outskirts of the town and many supermarkets, bars, restaurants and
nightclubs in and around the town centre. The marina provides a wealth of
water sports and boat excursions including trips over to Morocco. The
town's coastal strip includes two main beaches - the busiest being Playa
Poniente, which is well served with tourist facilities, and the quieter
Playa Granada. There are also many sheltered coves, rocky inlets and
impressive cliff faces along this stretch of coastline making it popular
with divers, snorkellers and sailors. For golfers there's the nine-hole
Los Moriscos course eight kilometres west of the town, set amid the exotic
fruit plantations and well equipped with a putting green, driving range
and good leisure facilities. Other sports available in the area include
rock climbing, whitewater rafting, fly surfing and mountain biking.
Holidays in Salobrena, Costa Tropical, Spain
- Salobrena is described by some as one of the Costa del Sol's best kept secrets.
The town of Salobrena is located in the Spanish region of Andalucia on the
Costa Tropical. Described by some as one of the Costa del Sol's best kept
secrets, this delightful town may not have the international reputation of
some of its coastal neighbours but it's an ideal holiday destination for
the discerning tourist. Salobreña can't offer you glitz and glamour - but
if you want a relaxing holiday, good beaches, a wealth of leisure
activities and a taste of the real Spain then you've come to the right
place. The curious simply can't resist the temptation of entering those
narrow, winding streets and making their way up the cobbled steps towards
the 10th century Moorish stronghold. What little breath you have left at
the end of this uphill climb will be taken away by the spectacular views
of the Mediterranean, the mountains and the sugar plantations which
proliferate around the town. Salobreña is fast becoming a favoured
holiday spot due to its inherent beauty and charm combined with a perfect
location for exploring the treasures of Andalucia. The town is just an
hour's drive from Malaga International Airport and 45 minutes from the
historic city of Granada with its fabulous Alhambra Palace.
Holidays in Roquetas de Mar, Costa Tropical, Spain
- Originally an old Roman fishing village it still preserves its rich cultural heritage today
The pretty resort of Roquetas de Mar is located on the Costa Tropical in
Spain. It was originally an old Roman fishing village and still preserves
its rich cultural heritage today, as evidenced in the lovely old town with
its narrow winding Moorish lanes, the ancient Castilla de Santa Ana tower,
and the pretty restored chapel of La Virgen del Rosario. The bustling port
and large marina are perfect places to wander of a summers evening, as is
the long tiled promenade which stretches along the coastline from one end
of the city to the other. Holidaymakers will also be thrilled by the
numerous golden sandy beaches which offer excellent water sports
facilities for when you have had enough of lounging around in the warm
sunshine. Sports enthusiasts have a range of other activities they can try
such as horse riding, tennis, and golf. Nature lovers will adore exploring
the surrounding countryside of Roquetas de Mar. The salt marsh at Las
Marinas is a paradise for flamingos, little egrets, and avocets while the
area around Punto Sabinas is a popular spot for avid birdwatchers with
crested larks and great grey shrikes. With Almeria Airport only 29
kilometres away by airport shuttle or airport taxi, this is the perfect
destination for a short or long break!
