12 Photos to Inspire A Visit to Costa Tropical And Granada

The Costa Tropical gets its name from its exceptionally warm climate. There is no real winter to speak of, unless you drive up into the Sierra Nevada mountains, so the Costa Tropical makes the perfect winter sun holiday destination. It takes just under an hour to drive to the alluring city of Granada, which attracts bohemian types and culture vultures a like. I'm sure you don't need much convincing, but here are 12 photos to inspire you to visit Costa Tropical and Granada...

 

 

 

1. There are plenty of great beaches for swimming and relaxing. Like this Calahonda beach near Motril...

 

2. Or this sheltered beach in Nerja with turquoise blue waters...

 

3. Or this beach in Almunecar with traditional fishing boats stranded along the sand...

 

4. Nerja also has some incredible caves - Cuevas de Nerja - which really are unmissable...

 

5. And Almunecar has an impressive castle - Castillo de San Miguel - which is well-worth exploring...

 

6. You fly into Malaga airport to get to Costa Tropical and it's a traditional Spanish-looking city with much history to discover and much architecture to admire...

 

7. And if it's traditional Spain that you're looking for, then a drive to the town of Frigiliana will tick that box...

 

8. The Sierra Nevada mountains are nature at its most stunning - you can even ski here in the deep winter...

 

9. The Alhambra Moorish palace in Granada, which towers over the city, is absolutely breath-taking...

 

10. Not to mention the views from inside the palace's intricately carved stone walls...

 

11. The gardens at the Palacio de Generalife are a tranquil paradise...

 

12. And finally, this sunset snapped from the highest point of Granada city is stupidly beautiful...
