The beautiful beaches of the Costa Almeria, including Mojacar, Garrucha, Vera, Villaricos and San Juan de los Terreros are all within easy reach, no more than a short drive away, as are many other secluded coves and expansive sandy beaches. The old towns of Huercal Overa and Albox, 10 minutes drive, provide all the local amenities you may need, with large supermarkets and all sorts of shops and narrow streets to explore. Local villages are Zurgena and La Alfoquia. The ancient and unusual cave houses of Cuevas De Almanzora are also nearby, as is the rowing lake from the 2006 Mediterranean Games.
For golfers, the nearby courses of Desert Springs, Valle Del Este, Cortijo Grande and Mojacar Playa provide a variety of different tests of ability in settings from coastal to hilly, but all provide beautiful views of the surrounding area and coastline.
In Vera there is even a bullring, where at some times of the year traditional bull fights still take place and a museum is open to the public.
