Almunecar is a small costal city, located in the centre of Costa Tropical in the province of Granada, along a coastline of coves and beaches with a stunning mountain backdrop and the warm Mediterranean sea.

This beautiful coastline is named after the abundance of tropical fruit it produces. Fruits such as chirimoya, mango, kaki, níspero, papaya, guayaba, and avocado are grown here, thanks to the subtropical microclimate which sees over 320 days sunshine a year and an average temperature of over 20 degrees. With such warm, clean waters it’s no wonder water sports such as these are so popular; whether its diving, paragliding, surfing. There are plenty of opportunities to enjoy outdoor activities in breathtaking surroundings here. Head to the local towns of Almunecar (La Herradura), Salobreaa, Motril, Castell de Ferro and La Rabita to take part in these sports plus golf, tennis, squash and horse riding.

The scenery is dramatic: rugged cliffs, hidden coves and broad beaches of fine golden sands are backed by the snow-capped peaks of the Sierra Nevada, meaning you can go skiing and visit the beach on the same day. Olive and walnut groves blanket the foothills, while almond, cherry, and cypress trees fill the air with their heady fragrance.

Almunecar and its neighbouring village, La Herradura, are overlooked by the Moorish Castillo de San Miguel. Here, you can explore narrow, winding streets which take you past little shops and tapas bars, most of which will give you a free tapa when you order a drink. If all that free tapas means you end up having a few too many to drive, there’s no need to worry, as buses run regularly from Almunecar. Bus Station, including daily buses to Málaga, Granada and Almeria as well as towns on the coast. If you wish to go further afield, Granada, Malaga and Almeria airport are all around 1 hour away.
