Almuñecar summary About Almuñecar, Costa Tropical

This ideally located town is a great choice all year round. Protected by the valley of the Verde River, the climate is good with lots of sun and warm winds that blow from North Africa. Almuñecar is becoming more and more popular with foreign visitors; even the Spanish residents choose to come here for their holidays.

This is a place that offers lots for the holidaymakers but hasn’t been ruined by tourism. Attractions include the famous Loro Sexi Park, which has over 120 different species of bird and the botanical garden that has subtropical plants mainly from Brazil and Cuba.

For more historical adventures go to the Palacete de la Najarra, which is a small Moorish palace built in the 19th century. Nowadays it’s the local tourist office and advice can be given on various days out.

Recommendations Owner's Tips...

La Rijana sits on top of a headland just below an ancient Moorish tower and looks out over the pool and the sea with breathtaking views across the ocean towards Africa and along the coastline from the bay of Motril, towards Nerja. From the windows and balconies, you can watch sunrise and sunset, follow the fishing boats and at certain times of year, spot dolphins just off the coast.

Roughly 1 hr from Malaga and Granada airports, Almuñecar is the principal town on a part of the southern coast of Andalucia, known as the Costa Tropical, a coast characterised by rugged cliffs falling to the sea and a sub-tropical climate that encourages the growth of chirimoyas, avocados, mangoes and bananas.

Almuñecar has the heart of an old Andalucian pueblo. You can see Roman remains of the fish-salting factory, wander through the botanical gardens (jazz festival in July), visit the bird park, castle, museum, Friday outdoor market (for clothes, shoes and local products) and a water park.

Almunecar makes a good centre for exploring not just the coast but also the near inland. The fascinating Granada, the last Moorish stronghold, with the fabulous Alhambra and Sierra Nevada skiing, is just an hour away and near here also, the Alpujjaras, made famous by the book 'Driving Over Lemons'.

In just over an hour, you can also reach the lake at Bermejeles where you can swim and eat at a lovely lakeside restaurant. A few minutes beyond this is the historic Alhama de Granada with hot springs, a deep gorge and fascinating Moorish Quarter.

Of course, the coast too has many interesting sights. Salobreña a few miles to the east is built on an outcrop of rock and topped by Moorish fortifications. Beyond this is the interesting Spanish town of Motril, with Los Moriscos golf course next to the sea. To the west of Almunecar is Marina del Este, an exclusive marina with smart restaurants and diving and then Herradura, a small, pleasant coastal resort. Beyond Herradura is Nerja, a popular resort for British holiday-makers, with a good beach (Burriana) and fantastic caves (International festival, featuring ballet, opera, flamenco in July).

Further west is the whitewashed village of Torrox Pueblo and and Torrox Costa, with a very pleasant promenade lined with restaurants and beyond this, 40 mins from Almunecar, is the lovely old town of Velez Malaga and its sister town on the coast - Torre del Mar.

The Costa tropical offers a huge variety of beaches and coves where opportunities exist for diving, windsurfing, paragliding, jet-ski, scuba, snorkelling, fishing, pedalo, nudism or simply sunbathing and swimming. There are 7 beaches at Almunecar and further west, numerous others can be reached down steep cliffs. Riding and golf are also available nearby.

Fiestas and festivals occur throughout the year and you can find out about them from the local tourist office or by visiting www.almunecar.com

The location of La Rijana, suitable all year round, means that you can combine the tranquillity of gazing across the blue of the Mediterranean with the convenience of being only minutes from the centre of a vibrant Spanish town. You can explore the coastal towns and more remote beaches or head inland to the mountains. And remember - the wonderful city of Granada and the Sierra Nevada ski resort are just a short drive away.
