Costa de Almeria region:
The region of Almeria is one of the most charming and unspoilt areas in the south-eastern Spain. Enjoying the sunniest and warmest climate in the whole of Europe, it is known as 'El Rincon del Emburjo' or 'the corner of enchantment'. The coast is completely unspoilt. To the east of Almeria we find the rugged and desolate coast of Cabo de Gata. This is an arid desert landscape and the annual rainfall is less than 200 mm. Visitors feel a sense of exploration here as many of the coves can only be reached on foot.
The Almeria region is one of the last parts of Spain to be developed, and does not have hte mass tourism of the other 'costas'.
