Salobreña is one of the most charming villages in Andalucia and continues to remain very Spanish. Centuries of history, natural surroundings, true Spanish culture and lovely weather are the main attractions for visitors. The white washed houses form a dazzling hill crowned by an ancient castle which overlooks the lush sugarcane plantations and blue sea. Abundant wildlife, valleys, coves and beaches, offer countless ways to enjoy outdoor activities surrounded by both sea and mountains.
