An Unforgettable Day on the Costa Tropical, Almuñécar, La Herradura and Kayaking in the Mediterranean

The Costa Tropical of Granada preserves one of the oldest historical legacies in Andalusia. Almuñécar was founded by the Phoenicians more than three thousand years ago and its urban layout preserves layers of civilization ranging from the Punic world to the Roman and Arab periods, still visible in its streets, necropolises and botanical gardens.

The day begins with a guided tour through the historic center of Almuñécar. The Peñones de San Cristóbal mark the city's horizon as the route descends toward Parque El Majuelo, a botanical garden that houses one of the best-preserved Phoenician necropolises on the peninsula. Our expert local guide places each corner within the broader story of a city with more than thirty centuries of history.

After the cultural visit, we open free time to explore the city at your own pace or optionally access Parque Loro Sexi, a space of subtropical fauna and flora characteristic of the unique microclimate of this coastal stretch.

The afternoon moves to La Herradura, a protected natural cove with clear waters and an exceptional seabed. Free time on the beach for swimming and relaxing facing the Mediterranean. For those seeking a more active experience, we offer an optional kayak route to the caves of La Herradura, accessible only by sea, with snorkeling included to discover the seabeds of one of Andalusia's richest marine reserves.
