Costa Almeria is an area of great beauty, with unspoilt Andalucian countryside, and many hidden beaches and coves - some of which are only accessible by foot. Well deserving of its name 'Spain's forgotten coast'. The fantastic desert landscape was used as the setting for many films including 'Lawrence of Arabia', 'The Good the Bad and the Ugly', as well as many Spaghetti Westerns. Some old movie sets have in fact been preserved, complete with double door saloons and trading posts.

The temperature here is mild the whole year round (with even the winter temperature rarely falling below 17 degrees centigrade), and there is minimal rainfall, and this, together with the general quietness of this Costa makes it a good choice for your new home.
