Frequently Asked Questions

About a kilometre from the centre. A blue line painted on the ground guides passengers from the terminal to the old town, a quarter-hour stroll past the palms of Parque Nicolás Salmerón.
A fortress raised in the 10th century by the Caliphate of Córdoba, second in size only to the Alhambra among the strongholds of al-Andalus. Yet visitors are few, especially outside the summer months.
About two hundred. The reward is three successive enclosures: Moorish-inspired gardens murmuring with water, palace remains, then Christian bastions added after the Reconquest. Allow a good hour.
Because it was one. Built in the 16th century while Barbary corsairs raided the coast, it was designed as much for refuge as for worship: massive buttresses, watchtowers and battlements.
A sun carved on the cathedral's east end, now the city's emblem. It is the detail locals point out to visitors who take the time to walk right around the building.
Yes, it is the local custom: every drink comes with a tapa included. Around the Puerta de Purchena and the Paseo de Almería, a meal builds itself glass by glass.
Red prawns from Garrucha, Alpujarras ham, rustic migas, the region's sun-dried tomatoes, and the cherigan, a grilled open sandwich whose version every bar defends fiercely.
A 1904 ore loading pier, a massive iron structure plunging towards the sea near the terminal, built by a British company in the spirit of Eiffel's school. Restored and listed, it makes a silhouette photographers love at sunset.
Yes, half an hour away by road: the film studios set in the only officially classified desert in Europe, where countless westerns were shot. It is the option for longer calls.
Not really. Everything is walkable from the quay and the old town is compact. Only the two hundred steps of the Alcazaba demand effort, under an almost Saharan light: water and a hat are not optional.
