Almeria's beaches are a contrast to the traditional beaches of the Mediterranean coast. Here, everyone can find a piece of land to suit their tastes, whether it's a fully developed beach in the city or a coastal area surrounded by nature. Almeria's beaches in the Cabo de Gata Park are undoubtedly the most mysterious and unspoiled.
Hundreds of kilometers of coastline of Almeria are united by one thing: here you can relax on the beaches near the majestic rocks, salt marshes, enjoying the abundance of wildlife and underwater world. Small bays and huge golden sandy beaches are enveloped by calm, gentle, sometimes aggressive sea. You can also get lost here, contemplating dark red sunsets in the waters of the bustling Mediterranean.
