With so much to see in the Andalusia region of Spain, Almería is often overlooked. But it holds an enchantment all its own, with fairytale castles amid colorful modern buildings. On Cabo de Gata Natural Park you find a spectacular beach of unspoiled sands and blue water with a backdrop of sand dunes, cacti and mountains. About 30 kilometers northwest of Almería you also find Desierto Tabernas, Europe’s only desert and setting of the famous Sergio Leone starring Clint Eastwood.

Once you get your cultural fill, head to Ensenada de los Galápagos, a small, but fabulous beach on the Mediterranean coast. Or, if you prefer a cultural immersion, Parque Hernández is a beautiful space for a respite. Delight on a paseo (stroll) on the central boulevard.

Malaga, Spain
The Spanish city of Málaga along the Mediterranean’s Costa del Sol combines the simple, cosmopolitan feel with the quiet sleepiness of local fishing villages.
