The rugged landscape makes the Almanzora a place apart. The dry arroyos, deep canyons and desert plateaus are reminiscent of the bad lands of the Wild West.
A very Spanish experience
The Almanzora Valley is enfolded by an infinite vista of vivid mountain ranges; the golden Sierra Cabrera, the orange Filabres, the black Almagreras and beyond the purple Seguras and snow capped peaks of the Sierra Nevada itself. This is Spain before the age of package tourism. Space to breathe, open countryside, white pueblos dotting the hills, small fishing villages, busy little market towns and welcome stretches of quiet, clean beaches, none of them overcrowded. Inland, cutting through the desert plateau are rich fertile valleys where the warm winter sun ripens fruit and vegetables in abundance.
The people of the Almanzora remain welcoming, good humoured and helpful to visitors. They earn their livings locally; mainly from farming, fishing and marble. There is no frenetic pace of life here, they have time to spare for visitors as well as each other. The atmosphere is relaxed and people still seem to enjoy their lives.
Fiestas
Every village has it's own fiestas; a time when locals return from all over the world to their home pueblos. Dazzlingly costumed Moors and Christians sally out from their encampments in Mojacar, whilst in Aguillas they fight it out with eggs in the old town square. The "romeria" of Antas sees a cavalcade of flower and senorita bedecked floats heading off into the surrounding hills for the annual pig-roast and picnic. In the old village of Turre, young and old let their hair down to dance sevillanas and fandangos as local bands play lively, traditional music. It could change your outlook on life forever.
