to the region. Almuñecar's old quarter is a charming
maze of narrow, cobbled streets crowned by the remains of
a Moorish castle. Its delightful street markets reflect the
lushness of the surrounding plains with stalls laden with
tropical fruits.
Salobreña to the east of Almuñecar, is the
most picturesque town of the region. Travellers bound for
other destinations find themselves compelled to take a detour
into Salobreña when they spot this appealing whitewashed
town clinging to the sides of an imposing rocky outcrop,
crowned by a magnificent medieval castle. The town is set
against the backdrop of the Sierra Chaparral mountain range.
Motril, the biggest town and a thriving commercial, fishing
and leisure port. This is the area's main shopping centre
with a hypermarket on the outskirts of the town and many
supermarkets, bars, restaurants and night clubs in and around
the town centre. The marina provides a wealth of water sports
and boat excursions including trips over to Morocco.
