It is known throughout the world for its fruit exports and it is one of the most agriculturally productive regions of Europe. Its more than 10,000 hectares of greenhouses are an important part of this very interrelated and regionalized economy which is always called llamó Campo de Dalías, now an indispensable part og the Andalucian economy. Its 27 kilometres of coast are formed by unspoilt beaches with crystalline waters, amongst others being Poniente Beach and Levante Almerimar Beach, Balerma Beach, Guardias Viejas Beach and those situated within the Paraje y Reserva Natural de Punta Entinas Sabinar. Punta Entinas Sabinar. is a Meditarranean subarid ecosystem in which the combination of coastal and land biotypes stand out, located on the east coast of the province of Almeria on a coastline which extends from Punta de Entinas to the salt marshes.  Amongst visits of interest the following stand out: funeral monument of Daymún from the end of the 3rd century, located next to the main road to Berja; the Fortified tower of Balerma, used to defend the coast from pirate attacks; and the Guardias Viejas castle, which was destroyed by the English and later rebuilt with private funding.   |
