Throughout the Granada region of southern Spain, whether you are planning to visit the famous city of Granada itself, explore one of the beautiful inland regions like the Lecrin Valley or Las Alpujarras, or discover the secrets of the rugged coast line of the Costa Tropical, there is a myriad of things to do.
Steeped in history and sprinkled with ancient white andalucian villages the Granada region offers everything from classical music festivals to the white knuckle rides of mountain biking. During each month of the year you will find local and regional fiestas, which are celebrated with music, dance, colourful processions and of course fireworks.
A huge variety of tours, exhibitions and museums can be found. It is possible to go wine tasting in one of the well stocked bodegas, visit an olive oil factory, or see the exciting city of Granada by following a tapas bar tour! Organised bird watching, hiking and flora and fauna tours are on offer all over the Granada region and along the Costa Tropical coast where due to the extensive variety of landscape you can literally be walking along the spectacular and rocky coastline one day and skiing in the snow topped Sierra Nevada mountains the next.
For the more adventurous visitors, horse riding and treking, biking, and quad bike tours are all available in mountain, low land and coastal areas to name but a few of the exciting activities available, whilst scuba diving, snorkelling and sailing are widely enjoyed all along the Costa Tropical.
Due to the incredible history of the Granada region which was conquered many times in the past, the whole area is full of ancient castles, churches and monuments. Many towns and villages have museums, literature and tours to explain the complexities of the local historic changes. Granada itself is full to the brim of marvellous exhibits of arab and christian architecture not least being the famous Alhambra Palace and gardens.
