Almerimar is a tourist district laid out around the Puerto Deportivo de Almerimar marina. The marina has 1,100 berths and shapes the area’s maritime character. When choosing where to stay, it is also worth looking beyond the marina: sailing and diving courses, golf, beaches and the Punta Entinas-Sabinar natural area offer different points of focus. You can therefore decide whether to make water activities, time on the golf course, or nature and the coast the focus of your stay in Almerimar.
Water, the Marina and the Wind
The sailing school at Club Náutico Almerimar offers sailing courses for all age groups. The club also runs diving courses at several levels. The activities differ by type, and diving courses also vary by level. If you would like to combine your stay with water sports, these give you two specific options that offer different kinds of experiences.
When it is windy, Playa Poniente becomes an important spot for surfing and windsurfing on the AlmerĂa coast. Almerimar’s tourist train offers panoramic views of the marina, but runs only during the summer months. The train ride offers a seasonal perspective on the marina; the courses and wind-dependent sports offer different points of focus.
Punta Entinas-Sabinar: Dunes, Birds and Trails
The Punta Entinas-Sabinar nature and landscape reserve is home to one of the best-preserved dune systems on the Iberian Peninsula. Migratory birds use the area to stay or rest, including flamingos. Alongside Almerimar’s maritime character, this puts a landscape whose distinctive features can be seen in its dunes and birdlife in the spotlight.
The “Marismas de Punta Entinas” walking trail starts at the entrance near Almerimar and runs along the northern edge of the natural area. If you would like to explore the landscape on foot, you can include a specific trail and its route in your plans. The Punta Entinas-Sabinar visitor centre presents the area’s biological diversity through information panels, screens and interactive activities. The trail and visitor centre offer different ways to experience the area: outdoors, the route follows the edge of the natural area; inside the centre, information and interpretation take centre stage.
Beaches, Cycling and Golf
It is also worth looking at the specific features described for each beach. Playa Levante is Almerimar’s most accessible beach. Its facilities include a bathing area with accessibility features, a reserved sandy area and adapted access to the water for people with reduced mobility. By contrast, access to Playa San Miguel leads through sand dunes with vegetation characteristic of AlmerĂa’s Mediterranean coast. These details offer specific points of reference for comparing the beaches’ different access conditions and landscape features.
For a bike ride, you can cycle along the 4 km Paseo MarĂtimo de Poniente. A Pedales offers bicycle rental in Almerimar. Golf is another option: Golf Almerimar has a 27-hole course designed by Gary Player. The golf school offers courses for all skill levels and age groups. So, alongside water and nature activities, cycling and golf are also distinct options in Almerimar.
