Go to Almeria for Spain’s Best Beach
February 13th, 2008
A beach in Almería has been named the best in Spain, making it the perfect place to buy a holiday home.
Property owners in Carboneras, Almería, can look forward to a bustling tourist season this summer, as Los Muertos, the municipal beach, has been classified as the ‘Best Beach in Spain’ by the Institute for Quality Tourism in Spain.
Carboneras sits at the start of the Cabo de Gata Natural Park, and though it boasts a number of historical monuments, including the 16th century San Andrés Castle, the town is best known for its beaches. Almost 17km of fine sand stretches along its coast, including the central El Ancón, which receives the blue EEC flag award annually.
However, the most beautiful of these is the nudist beach Los Muertos, which can only be reached by boat or via a 1km hike through the natural park.
Los Muertos was presented with one of the Q certificates for quality tourism during a ceremony forming part of the activities of the International Exhibition for Tourism (FITUR), held annually in Madrid. The secluded beach is also rated one of the top five in the world for its crystal-clear water and peaceful sands, where you can relax with little fear of being undisturbed.
At present, accommodation nearby is comprises a handful of guesthouses, so as the beach becomes better known, Carboneras will be an ideal place to make a buy-to-let investment.
