El Faro - Almeria - Spain
Let us introduce you to a gently developing area of southern Spain, boasting 17 kilometers of sandy beach, dramatic coastal and mountain scenery, and historic towns.
Its mild climate make it an all year destination with the average winter temperature being 16C. Spring and Autimn are a good time to enjoy warm sunshine without roasting! Last year we were out in February and the temperature was 20-21C for most of the week.
