| INFO
ON COSTA ALMERIA. |
| |
If
any of the provinces of Andalucía can be said to be
full of contrast then it is Almeria. Located in the south-east
corner of the peninsula, here you can stroll through the dry
and desolate Natural Park of Cabo de Gata-Nijar, or enjoy
the fantastic beaches that can be found in the tourist resorts
of Roquetas de Mar, Aguadulce, Vera and Mojarca. Some 3,000
hours of sunshine a year make this the sunniest province in
Spain, |
with
average annual temperatures of 18-19 degrees centigrade. The
climate is sub-tropical, Mediterranean, warm and dry. The
Almeria coast accounts for a quarter of the entire Andalusian
shoreline and is the second most important coastal province
of the region as far as golf is concerned. |
|
The
city of Almeria is the capital of the province. A visit to
the city must not be left off the tourist’s agenda, due to
the wealth of heritage left behind by the different civilisations
that have lived here throughout history. The main attraction
is undoubtedly the Alcazaba, a magnificent Muslim fortress
which dominates the entire city. |
|
Golf
is becoming one of the most important features of tourism
in Almeria, and more and better golf courses are opening up
all over the area. There are in total seven courses in Almeria:
La Envía, Desert Spring, Cortijo Grande, Golf Almerimar,
Playa Serena, Marina Golf and Valle del Este. Some of them
have their own hotel complexes, services and activities to
complement the golf facilities. The idea of playing golf in
the desert one day and by the sea the next never fails to
impress golfers. |
