View All DealsAguadulce is perfectly placed between a long stretch of coastline, mountains and a desert, so holidays here have a lot to offer.
The variety of natural landscapes that Aguadulce offers doesn’t just make for an interesting holiday. Thanks to the Sierra Nevada mountain range behind it, and its bay location, Aguadulce gets the best of the Costa de Almeria’s microclimate. It holds the record for the most sunshine hours and least rainfall on the European Mediterranean coast. So, you can take full advantage of the beaches, mountains, desert and sights that Aguadulce offers up.
The drive to Almeria takes less than 15 minutes. Here, you’ll find some of the best historical sites in Andalucia, as well as a modern restaurant and nightlife scene. The Alcazaba de Almeria castle perches on top of a hill – you can see it wherever you are in the city. It was built in the 10th century, and has been added to by the different rulers that have occupied Almeria since then. There are panoramic views from the top of the castle walls, too. La Rambla is a great place to have a coffee and watch the world go by. It’s a long avenue, lined with cafés and palm trees, which runs through the city centre and ends right at the seafront.
In Roquetas de Mar – 15 minutes down the road – you can explore the narrow streets of the old town, or watch one of the free open-air concerts that the town council puts on in the summer. They take place in various spots around the town, and there are lots of options, including traditional flamenco, jazz, classical, pop, and shows for children. You can also visit the Roquetas Aquarium, try some slides at Mario Park waterpark, or sit down for a show at the Teatro Auditorio.
Around an hour’s drive away, you’ll find the Cabo de Gata-Níjar National Park. The park is famous for its huge range of animals and plant life, and there are some great hiking routes set out for visitors. During the summer, Cabo de Gata-Níjar’s flamingos are a highlight. The bright-pink birds – along with herons, storks and cranes – flock to the park when they migrate. While you’re there, take a look at the abandoned gold mines of Rodalquilar – they’re surrounded by volcanic hills and cacti and have been left mostly untouched since the end of the gold rush.
