40km (25 miles) to the west of Almeria, Almerimar is a beautiful resort built around the original harbour and flanked on both sides by natural parks and unspoilt beaches. The town is maintained to the highest of standards, roads are lined with palm trees and flora.

Almerimar is bursting with local pride and during the summer months the whole town indulge in fairs and family entertainment such as, beach parties and offer a warm welcome for all to join in. The golf course is adjacent to the marina which overlooks the original harbour where traditional Spanish fishing boats work as they have done for many years.

The modern marina is full of various craft shops and is where one can enjoy a drink in a bar or a good meal in a restaurant, perhaps sampling the local fisherman's catch. As anywhere abroad you will find numerous bars around the marina, all serving cheap drinks till the early hours, don't be fooled though, the bars, like the restaurants are for relaxing and unwinding. However, if you want it, you can find it, there are a few discos and lively bars but not enough to spoil the peace and relaxation of the marina.

With the blue flag award winning beach only metres away from the marina Almerimar is a delightful resort set amidst some of Spain's finest scenery highlighted by a backdrop of the Sierra Nevada snow capped mountains. Local activities include Diving, Sailing, Boat Trips, Fishing, Horse Riding, a Water Park (in Roquetas De Mar) and just outside Almerimar is a shopping centre (including a supermarket), an excellent Tourist Information Centre and Cinema.

Andalucia is renowned for Tapas with great bars and restaurants serving great local fresh produce in the harbour with a traditional Spanish atmosphere.
