As the second-busiest port in southern Europe, Algeciras has an abundant energy unlike anywhere else in southern Spain, and offers the added bonuses of the beaches of Getares, Rinconcillo and Chorrillo, as well as beautiful views of Africa across the strait and the island of Gibraltar is only a short ferry ride away. Algeciras holidays offer a uniquely bohemian experience, rich in historical and cultural diversity.

Featured Costa Del Sol Hotels:

Weather

As Algeciras is located on the southern Andalusian coast, it enjoys warm, pleasant weather all year round with temperate summers and comfortable winters. Take your holidays at any time of the year, but as you would expect the summer months are best for sun tanning.

Attractions

The main attractions of Algecrias is its proximity to other more popular tourist destinations such as Tangiers and Morocco, and other destinations popular with people considering Costa del Sol holidays – whilst there is a richly historical side to the city, much of Algeciras’ charm comes from its authenticity as a bustling port. Many fine examples of traditional Spanish architecture can be found in the charming San Isidro quarter, dating back to the 18th Century, whilst the Plaza Alta offers many cafes and bazaars.
