The pretty resort of Roquetas de Mar is located on the Costa Tropical in Spain. It was originally an old Roman fishing village and still preserves its rich cultural heritage today, as evidenced in the lovely old town with its narrow winding Moorish lanes, the ancient Castilla de Santa Ana tower, and the pretty restored chapel of La Virgen del Rosario.
The bustling port and large marina are perfect places to wander of a summers evening, as is the long tiled promenade which stretches along the coastline from one end of the city to the other. Holidaymakers will also be thrilled by the numerous golden sandy beaches which offer excellent water sports facilities for when you have had enough of lounging around in the warm sunshine.
Sports enthusiasts have a range of other activities they can try such as horse riding, tennis, and golf. Nature lovers will adore exploring the surrounding countryside of Roquetas de Mar. The salt marsh at Las Marinas is a paradise for flamingos, little egrets, and avocets while the area around Punto Sabinas is a popular spot for avid birdwatchers with crested larks and great grey shrikes.
With Almeria Airport only 29 kilometres away by airport shuttle or airport taxi, this is the perfect destination for a short or long break!

We have used Shuttle Direct for many years, mainly in Spain but also in Malta, Holland & Prague. They have always been efficient, friendly and never an issue when I had to cancel due to the Pandemic or once last year due to ill health.

Geweldige organisatie, duidelijke website, doet wat het beloofd! Tegen een redelijke prijs van het vliegveld naar het appartement met een ruime auto met chauffeur. De zeer vriendelijke chauffeur stond keurig op tijd klaar met naambord en bracht ons na een half uurtje voor de entree van het appartement. Chapeau!

Picking a family holiday becomes a lot trickier once your little ones become teens. Ideal-ly, you will want somewhere that you can all enjoy together, but with the option for them to be independent and explore by themselves (this peace and quiet is important for mum and dad too!). The perfect destination will be somewhere that has many activities and facilities for teens, but also somewhere that is safe and you do not have to worry about them getting into trouble...
Very nice driver, pleasant and courteous.
