La Guardia beach in Salobreña (Granada) is ideal for enjoying the sun in winter
A privileged climate in a paradisiacal setting
At La Guardia Beach,Salobreña, we can find mild temperatures, tranquility, and one of the most beautiful landscapes the Mediterranean has to offer. It is not for nothing that it is on the Costa Tropical (Granada). A name that sounds like abundant vegetation, palm trees and crystal clear waters, and that is exactly what awaits us.
This winter is getting a bit long for us, but luckily there are places, not too far away, where we can enjoy the sun even in February or March.A sun that heats without burning, and that produces a sensation very similar to happiness. Especially when accompanied by the sound of the sea.
Salobreña has 320 sunny days a year Salobreña has 320 sunny days a year and average winter temperatures between 12º and 24ºC. In addition, the absence of tall buildings in most of the territory that it covers means that we begin to notice the shelter from the sun from very early on.
La Guardia beach is surrounded by agricultural crops,it measures just over 1 kilometer and is delimited by the Salobreña rock, on one side, and the Caleta beach, on the other. So if we locate ourselves in the center, we will only see the sea, nature, and the impressive views of the town and the Monte de los Almendros, with its typical Andalusian white houses.
Beach bars to eat as luxury
Their specialties are fish and shell fish from the port of Motril,on a spit, grilled or fried. Although they also serve meat and more elaborate dishes such as monkfish a la marinera or rice with lobster.
Salobreña, the town that looks at the sea from the heights
Ya que estamos en la playa, merece la pena hacer una visita al casco antiguo de Salobreña, que está situado sobre un peñón. Un laberinto de muros encalados, por el que es tan fácil como estimulante perderse.
Subir por sus calles estrechas y empedradas, a pesar de que algunas pendientes son importantes, tiene recompensa. Arriba nos espera un precioso castillo de la época nazarí y unas panorámicas espectaculares.
El pueblo se sitúa sobre un valle repleto de árboles frutales, de aguacate y de mango, por lo que, desde la cima, podemos admirar el verde del campo, los azules del mar y la majestuosidad de las montañas de Sierra Nevada.
Y además, si nos esperamos al atardecer, veremos también la magnífica puesta de sol, tiñendo de rojo el cielo y la playa. Imposible describir tanta belleza. Salobreña, en invierno, calienta el cuerpo y el alma.
