Cabrera

Cabrera is one of the most unspoiled parts of the Province of Almeria and has been influenced by the Moors circ. 13th to 15th century. You can see the Moorish influence all around the minute you enter Cortijo Cabrera and you will know straight away this area is unique.

Cortijo Cabrera lies on the Sierra Cabrera mountain range overlooking a golf course valley, and is just a short distance from the villages of Turre, Garrucha, Vera, Los Gallardos, Cuevas del Almanzor and Mojacar.

Cabrera Mountain range is an area partially designated as a nature reserve, It is approximately 20 minutes from the long sandy beaches on the coast, yet in the rural charms of the Almeria countryside.

The Cabrera region offers a wealth of leisure activities for all tastes: swimming, sun-bathing, sea fishing, scuba diving and windsurfing, superb mountain walks, golf tennis, and horse riding. For bathing enthusiasts, there is a marina at Garrucha. Within a 2 hours drive you are on the slopes of the Sierra Nevada.

 Sierra Cabrera and the Alhambra Village

The breathtaking vistas of Sierra Cabrera make it one of the most spectacular areas not far from the beaches of Costa de Almeria. Visitors to the area are enchanted by the stark grandeur of the hills and mountains, the fragrant beauty of the orange and lemon groves and almond trees nestling among the foothills. The tranquillity is only disturbed by the distant chiming of bells of the herds of goats and sheep which, tended by their shepherds, timelessly roam the countryside.

Riding stables, golf, tennis bowling and water sports are all within easy reach and for those quieter moments you can relax at the Arabian-styled Fatima`s coffee shop enjoy a superb meal with a choice of Spanish or Italian restaurants, like Los Pastores in the heart of the village. The Sierra Cabrera is an ideal location for those wishing to become full- time residents or just seeking a relaxing break from the pressures of everyday life.
