Salobrena Holidays

Travel Resources

Salobrena, about six miles east of Almunecar and 3 miles west of Motril, is a typical Andalucian whitewashed village clinging to the side of what is known locally as Gran Penon, but which is in fact a massive rocky outcrop clearly visible from the main coast road. At the top of Gran Penon is the ruined 10th Century Moorish castle once the winter palace of the Kings of the Alhambra. Around and below the castle the typically Spanish white-washed village reaches down to the surrounding sugar cane fields and beaches. The village retains most of its heritage and history, is one of the few villages in Spain that can claim to be the birthplace of “tapas“, and most of the local bars still serve these traditional accompaniments to the local beer or wine. The local areas of Albaycin, de la Loma, el Brocal and la Fuente still retain their charm, maintaining the original village’s layout of impossibly narrow winding roads, paths, passages, and arches. There are many colourful festivals throughout the year when the village comes alive with Fiestas, masks, carnival lights, music and dancing. Below the town lies the long sandy beach that in the summer months attracts visitors from all over the world.
