Almeria Tourism

Up until recently Almeria City has been reasonably undiscovered mainly because the budget airlines were not flying to the Costa Almeria.  Now that they are tourism is booming.  Almeria city is typically picturesque Spanish city with an abundance of culture, and many fine restaurants, bars, shops, and a good night life. 

Almeria city has an abundance of history with many places to visit.  The Cathedral is a must see built in 995, so is the Alcazaba.  Two ways to soak up the Spanish atmosphere and get to know the city is to stroll through the park, and a visit to the local market which is on from 9-2pm every Tuesday in the Plaza Vieja.  Through the center of the city is La Rambla a long avenue with many childrens playgrounds, and alcoves to sit and rest. 

Sights close to Almerimar:

  • Water Park - lots of flumes, children's slide and swimming pool, wave machine, kamikaze ride, restaurants, shaded picnic area and much more

  • Texas Hollywood - film studio, and theme park, this is where a Fist Full of Dollars was filmed.  There also live performances and a bar, and restaurant

  • Cabo de Gata Natural Park - the natural park is very nearby and is well worth visiting, its a protected area with high ecological value, due to its flora and fauna.

  • Astronomical Center - in Gergal, Sierra de los Filabres, you will find a astronomical center where you will find the worlds most powerful telescope, with the year round clear skies there is much to see

  • Troglodyte Villages - there are many troglodyte villages worth visiting  because their homes are caves dug out of the cliffs.  The village of Sante Fe de Modujar is well recommended

  • Mini Hollywood - a wild west town recreated with shows, cowboys, a museum, restaurants, a Zoo with an array of animals, and a playground for the children

All in all I would highly recommend Almeria City for your annual holiday or investment in property, it is an undiscovered area of Spain with friendly locals, and lots to do.
