Location
Lubrin
is located about 1 hour cross country
from Almeria Airport or 2 hours motorway/cross country from Alicante or Murcia
Airports. The well known beach resorts of Mojacar and Garrucha which are just 45
minutes away by car and the drive along the scenic route, via Bedar, is awesome!
The more Spanish resorts of San Juan Torres and Aquilas (to the North) and
Carboneras, Agua Marga and San Jose ( to the South) are about an hour away.
These Spanish resorts, in Summer, are very much less crowded, especially
mid-week, than Mojacar and Garrucha.
Places of
Interest include Cuevas de Almanzora for its cave houses and Tabernas for its
magnificent Desert National Park. At Tabernas is a Westen Theme park on the site
of the Clint Eastwood Movies! The Gabo de Gata National Park is about an hour
away : a desert, ending abruptly at the sea, with most beautiful, volcanic
formations, beaches with difficult access and white villages. The landward side
of the Natural Park is inhabited with a diverse species of birds and the sea is
rich in marine life. The ancient Andalusian city of Almeria(1 hour away) lies
sheltered at the base of a bay, proudly dominated by the amazing Alcazaba, a
huge Moorish citadel with three walled enclosures dating from 995.
Lubrin is just 30mins from the Almeria- Sevilla Motorway so that Granada, Sierra Nevada and the Alpuharras are just over 2 hours away and the skiing and walking seasons adds another dimension to life in Lubrin. Andalucia also offers such cultural gems as Seville, Cordoba and Cadiz which are no more than 4 hours away by car.
