The Town
Almuñécar, an all year round holiday destination which enjoys an average of 320 days’ sunshine a year, is a lively resort-cum-working town on the Costa Tropical, a coastal stretch that is situated between Malaga and Almeria. The town is very Spanish and retains a Moorish atmosphere in its extensive old quarter, a maze of cobbled streets with many shops, tapas bars, cafés and restaurants, which form the heart of the town. There are a number of attractive beaches and bays at Almuñécar and its surrounding districts and superb sea front promenades provide easy, pleasant strolling in reach of both beach and town, with plenty of opportunities to stop for refreshments on the way.
The town was founded by the Phoenicians more than 3,000 years ago and was later occupied by the Romans and subsequently by the Moors. Roman remains include an aqueduct and the foundations of a fort, which is now the Castle (Castillo de San Miguel) built by the Moors during the reign of Carlos V.
There are numerous bus services from Almuñécar to local destinations along the coast and also regular services to Almeria, Malaga and Granada.
