Fortresses, beaches, and deserts facing the Mediterranean

Almería is sun, sea, and land. At the top, the Alcazaba—the largest Moorish fortress in Spain—overlooks an old town of whitewashed alleys and peaceful squares. Below, Cabo de Gata unveils unspoiled beaches and cliffs that invite you to disconnect. In the Tabernas Desert, a natural film set for Westerns, the wind still whispers cinematic tales. Here, tapas are an art form and sunsets paint the fortress-cathedral, witness to pirates and conquests, in golden hues. Between the Mediterranean and the desert, Almería blends wild nature with tradition.
