Almerimar boasts beautiful beaches and a lovely tranquil marina which is the focus for all the local shops and the new supermarket, together with a wide variety of restaurants overlooking the water. The Ancient City of Almeria is about 35 minutes away. The area is served by an airport, and new roads are being built. The climate on Costa Almeria is a few degrees warmer than the other southern costas and perfect for sun lovers. For something cooler, the attractive Sky Station ski village resort near Granada in the Sierra Nevada range is around 2 hours' drive, through breathtaking scenery on top class mountain motorways.
