Most Almeria beaches have been turned into tourist resorts but Cabo del Gata is Almeria's great wilderness area- excluding Fort Bravo which is a man made wilderness! There are some amazing rock formations jutting out of the sea and some of the beaches are completely desserted.

THis is the only semi desert area in Europe and certainly some parts of it feel more like North Africa than Spain. It's dusty scrubland for the most part but the vast expanses of sky and the cloud formations are really captivating. I'd definitely recommend a day trip here.
