 | Active Almería
 | | Few Spanish provinces can offer as wide an array of recreational activities as Almería. This is the result of its highly contrasted geography which in a matter of few kilometres allows you to go from a wild and mountainous landscape to another more akin to a tropical paradise with sun-bathed beaches. People keen on water sports can enjoy beach holidays water-skiing, diving in the rich and wild underwater lands of secluded coves, or taking long boat rides along the Mediterranean coast. For those who prefer nature holidays, the province is covered with numerous cultural and archaeological routes that allow visitors to enjoy direct contact with the environment at the same time they enrich their cultural knowledge. Visitors can walk, ride mountain bike or even take a ride on a donkey along nature trails. For those who prefer an adrenalin rush the province provides some pleasant surprises, such as skiing, scaling, potholing, microlight, paragliding, and hang-gliding form the cliffs of Aguadulce in Roquetas de Mar. Cultural tourism such as learning new languages and traditions in specialised schools is also within visitors' reach. | |
