Find a cheap holiday deal to Almeria and explore the Alcazaba complex and the walls of Cerro de San Cristobal. Stroll through the pretty gardens, have a look around its impressive citadel and admire the three enclosures, two of Muslim design and a third with Christian origin, that make up this complex. Don't miss the cathedral of La Encarnacion with its fortress-like structure either, located in the old city. In a style half way between late Gothic and Renaissance, it's worth visiting and wandering around its cloister.

Located next to the Muelle de Levante dock, it is a former mineral loading platform built at the beginning of the 20th century. Take the opportunity to visit Almeria's museum, where you'll find archaeological remains from several sites around the province and a collection dedicated to ethnography.

Book your flight + hotel to Almeria and go for a walk along the promenade or take a dip at one of the city's beaches, such as the popular El Zapillo beach. Almeria boasts to having 320 days of sunshine per year and an annual average temperature of 20 °C, making the perfect spot for outdoor sports.

Check out various holiday deals to Almeria and discover the incredible natural locations the province has to offer. Only around eighteen miles from the city, you'll find the Tabernas desert, the only desert in Europe and the scene for numerous films, such as Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, thanks to its stunning appearance. Similarly, the Cabo de Gata-Nijar geopark is another location you can't miss: admire its flora and fauna along its miles of rugged coastline, which is among the best preserved on the Spanish Mediterranean coast.
