Algarrobo Beach

Description

Algarrobo is a Moorish village on the slopes of two hills with spectacular views of the Mediterranean Sea. Being a coastal municipality, the town centre is located inland, three kilometres from the beach. Its foundation dates back to the period of Arab domination. Strolling through its winding, steep streets you will notice the niches on some of the façades to venerate the saints.

Its coastline includes the villages of Mezquitilla, with its seafaring tradition, and Algarrobo Costa. This characteristic makes it an exceptional destination for sun and beach tourism, but also for travellers who want to immerse themselves in the history and culture of this locality.

Its parish church, the Phoenician necropolis of Trayamar and the watchtowers built since ancient times to guard the seafront are, together with its coastline, the main attractions of Algarrobo.

The municipality of Algarrobo is one of the seven that make up the Sun and Wine Route, which combines the best of the coast and the interior. Alongside a beautiful coastline of beaches dotted with cliffs and coves, there is a succession of hills laden with vineyards, white farmhouses and farmhouses where sweet wine, famous since Roman times, is made.
