Almeria
On the eastern edge of Andalucia lies the province of Almeria.
It takes its name from its capital city which lies on the southern
coast of the province. The area could have remained somewhat
unknown if it hadn't been for the film companies who discovered
that the area offered ideal film sets for films such as Lawrence
of Arabia and Patton. Hundreds of westerns have been produced in
the local hillsides.
Almeria, despite its rugged landscape and shortage of fertile
soil, has managed, with a good irrigation system, to become an
important growth area and it is well known for the quality of its
oranges and white grapes, most of which are exported from its
port. As you drive through the province you will see an endless
sea of polythene tunnels, crammed with produce. The area is almost
totally dependent on this industry. The province of Almeria may
initially appear to be a barren desert-like landscape but on close
inspection you will find it to be the Andalucian province with the
longest stretch of beaches. Empty beaches and tiny hidden coves
with perfectly clear water. Because of the diverse landscapes, the
range of sports activities is endless from water sports to hiking,
paragliding, horse riding and golf.
Almeria city itself is a pleasant and largely modern city and
offers a relaxing holiday destination and has a wealth of history
to offer. The Phoenicans founded the town, Carthagnians, Romans
and Moors all occupied it before Ferdinand and Isabella finally
recovered it for Spain during the reconquest.
Almeria is already preparing to host the 2005 Mediterranean
Games and already the sporting spirit prevails in the city. This
is the perfect place to enjoy water sports such as sailing,
windsurfing and rowing.
The cathedral is a must see, as is the Alcazaba, above, built
in 995. Enjoy a quiet stroll through the Nicolas Salmeron Park
then head up towards the caves in the old gypsy quarter. A good
time to visit Almeria is during the annual fair in August. From
Almeria it is easy to visit many small towns and villages that
offer true, unspoilt Spain. Take your time exploring the city of
Almeria and make sure you see the old quarter where you will find
Casa de los Puche and the market area of Plaza Vieja. Almeria is
quite unique in so much as it is half Spanish and half African.
Many of the local workers are of African origin. The port has a
ferry service to Africa.
