Beach holiday rentals in Granada province
Seaside locations for your Granada beach holiday
The Costa Tropical coastline stretches for 60 kilometres along Granada province's southern edge, offering a selection of charming seaside locations for your beach holiday. Almuñécar and its neighbour La Herradura form the tourist heart of the region, with numerous beachfront villas and apartments positioned within easy walking distance of sandy shores. Salobreña provides a stunning setting where whitewashed houses cascade down a hillside crowned by a Moorish castle, with beaches just below. The fishing town of Motril offers a more authentic Spanish atmosphere with excellent coastal access, whilst the smaller resort of Castell de Ferro attracts those seeking quieter, less developed beaches.

Beach villas in Granada province cater perfectly to families, couples, and groups seeking a relaxed Mediterranean holiday with direct coastal access. These properties range from modern apartments with sea-view balconies to spacious multi-bedroom villas with private pools and gardens. The architectural style blends contemporary comfort with traditional Spanish design, featuring terracotta tiles, arched doorways, and shaded terraces ideal for escaping the midday sun.

Travellers and activities
Beach holiday rentals in Granada province for water enthusiasts
The Costa Tropical's sub-tropical climate creates ideal conditions for water-based activities throughout the year. The warm, crystal-clear Mediterranean waters invite swimming, snorkelling, and diving, with numerous rocky coves harbouring colourful marine life. Almuñécar and La Herradura offer water sports facilities including kayaking, paddle boarding, and sailing, with equipment hire readily available along the beaches. The sheltered bay at La Herradura is particularly popular for diving, with several dive centres offering courses and guided excursions to underwater caves and reefs. Fishing enthusiasts can join boat trips from the traditional harbours or try their hand at shore fishing from the numerous rocky outcrops. The consistent weather and gentle waves make these beaches particularly suitable for families with young children who want safe paddling and swimming conditions.
Granada province beach villas for relaxation seekers
Those seeking peaceful seaside relaxation will find the Costa Tropical perfectly suited to a slower pace of life. The picturesque fishing villages retain their authentic Spanish character, with palm-lined promenades perfect for evening paseos and waterfront restaurants serving fresh seafood caught that morning. The dramatic mountain backdrop of the Sierra Lujar creates stunning sunset vistas from beachfront terraces. The region's relatively unspoilt nature means beaches rarely feel overcrowded, even during peak summer months. Many visitors enjoy simply alternating between their villa's private pool and the nearby beach, perhaps taking leisurely walks to discover hidden coves along the coastal paths. The warm winters make the Costa Tropical an excellent choice for those escaping colder northern climates, offering pleasant beach weather when most Mediterranean destinations become too cool for seaside holidays.
Granada province offers the unique possibility of skiing in the Sierra Nevada mountains in the morning and sunbathing on the Costa Tropical beaches in the afternoon.
