Adra
The delightful holiday resort town of Adra, the western-most
coastal town in the province of Almeria, is surrounded by
magnificent beaches and is rich in history, having been founded in
the 8th century. Adra remains a working fishing harbour and
early-rising visitors enjoy the daily dawn fish auctions and dining
out at the many tempting seafood restaurants.
The clean, neat town centre with its many squares and parks is
split by the attractive Paseo de Natalio Rivas promenade. Sights to
see include the Church of the Immaculate Conception, the Partridge
Tower (which houses the tourist office), an historic restored mill
and the town's interesting museum. Adra boasts the Poniente blue
flag beach among its stretches of beautiful sandy shore, attracting
hundreds of holidaymakers each year.
