Almeria City Breaks

Almeria City Breaks - The ultimate Spanish sunshine destination

No other Spain city break destination can outshine Almeria in terms of weather. City breaks in Almeria enjoy Spain’s sunniest and driest climate, with long hours of warm sunshine for around 320 days of the year! Short breaks in Almeria offer sunbathing and warm seas from early spring to late autumn. A surfeit of spirit-raising winter sunshine makes Almeria weekend breaks a firm favourite with directline winter sun seekers.

Almeria Weekend Breaks - Unique Moorish fortress
In terms of sightseeing, Almeria city breaks feature the Alcazaba, a unique hilltop Arab fortress, and the city’s distinct 16th century cathedral. No short break in Almeria should miss out on the weird cave houses in the old gypsy neighbourhood and the enjoyably low-key collection of galleries and museums. Longer city breaks to Almeria would benefit from a hire car in order to explore the weird Wild West desert landscapes of the interior around Tabernas, and discover unspoilt beaches and dramatic cliffs in the Cabo de Gata National Park. Long weekend breaks in Almeria will also allow more time for exploring the popular neighbouring beach resorts of Roquetas de Mar, Aguadulce, Mojácar and Carboneras.
