A Holiday In Almerimar

It is true that when summer comes, there is a madding crowd starting to desperately search for the perfect holiday destination. The majority of the crowd choose Spain because it is a country so diverse in landscape and culture that there is something on offer for every taste.  Starting with modern and very futuristic cities; continuing with the traditional villages; the high peaks of the mountains and the calm waters and finishing with the fascinating traditions and customs of the country, It would be difficult to not find somewhere in Spain that matches your holiday requirements.

One of the most frequented Spanish locations on the tourist circuit is Almerimar. This luxurious beach resort is situated close to the very famous town of El Ejido, one of the most prosperous places in Andalusia. With over 64,000 acres of land dedicated to the cultivation of fruit and vegetables, the export market to Northern Europe has brought wealth to a population which was around 2,000 in 1980 but has now grown to 50,000, employing over 10,000 immigrant workers annually.

Almerimar and its attractions

Almerimar has a lot to offer with its subtropical climate boasting 300 days of sun every year with an average temperature which is never lower than 18.5°C. There are few purpose-built, modern resorts like Almerimar in the whole of Europe and it stands out like an oasis with a backdrop of dry, desert landscape.  Curiously in every direction you can see snow capped mountains for seven months of the year whilst enjoying sunbathing on the 7 kilometres of clean, golden beaches.

In addition, the waters of the sea are very calm, crystal clear and shallow so they are perfect for swimming even for small children. Those tourists who prefer activity in their holiday can practice one of the many water sports available, as Almerimar offers great conditions for surfing, diving and snorkelling. Awarded the European Blue Flag for the great conditions and facilities on its beaches, Almerimar is a wonderful place to spend your holiday.

There is a new golf course, a marina, fishing harbour and Nature Park all worth visiting. Just a one and half hour, mostly motorway drive from Almerimar is the Sierra Nevada Ski Resort, so you could spend the morning skiing and the afternoon relaxing on the beach.  How many places can you think of that offer this diversity?  You can be assured of a memorable holiday in Almerimar.
