Almeria has been a genial little port since its founding by the Phoenicians,
though for a short of time in the 11th century, after the fall of the
caliphate, it dominated this end of al-Andalus, rivalling Cordoba and
Sevilla. The upper city, with its narrow streets, tiny pastel houses and
whitewashed cave dwellings hugging the looming walls of the Alcazaba.
In Almeria, nature provides an endless source of surprises for tourists.
Areas of sand dunes that resemble the desert of Africa, constant clear
blue skies, prickly pear, palm trees as well as orchards and gardens ablaze
with myriad colours. The parquet Natural de Cabo de Gata-Nijar is situated
to the extreme south of the volcanic Cabo de Gata Mountains and is a heaven
of isolated landscapes and wild, unspoilt beaches. Sol Mar Car Hire
in almeria provides you with great flexibility to enjoy the surroundings
at your own time.
