Playa de Los Genoveses (Almeria)
Not for nothing have many Western films – including the Clint Eastwood classics – been set in the sun-baked landscape of Almeria. This is one of southern Spain’s most rugged and beautiful provinces and the Playa de los Genoveses – located on the eastern coast of the vast Cabo de Gata natural park – is one of its best. Make sure you come fully equipped if you’re spending a day on Los Genoveses, as this is a truly unspoilt beach: no bars, no shops, no boat rental companies, no toilets – just 1,200 metres of white sand, undulating dunes, cacti, eucalyptus trees and perfectly blue sea.
