Belonging to the municipality of Roquetas de Mar, Aguadulce is one of the most important touristic hubs of Almería province, located some 8km from Almería city.

In 1950 it only had 27 houses and 300 inhabitants, however now the population is over 15,000 people and during the summer months, it goes up to 45,000.

Within the municipality of Roquetas el Mar is the famous "Aguadulce" (Fresh Water) resort - one of the first tourist resorts established in Spain in the 1960's and has been classified as a Centre of National Touristic Interest.
Felix is another village whose architecture gives away its Arabic past. The mass of white houses is presided over by an eleventh-century Arabic castle. Legend says that the castle is de la matanza (‘of slaughter’) because the Moriscos who fought against the Christian troops in 1568 threw themselves from the top, as they would rather die than convert to Christianity. The village has around 640 inhabitants.
La Mojonera formed part of the Felix district until 1984. The principal economic activity here is the local production of confectionary, which is recognized throughout the region. The town has around 9000 inhabitants.

It is not surprising, then, that there are numerous lodgings and hotel accommodations providing exclusive services for nudists. However, the town also has a very interesting cultural offering due to its artistic and historical past. It has around 15,800 inhabitants.
Pulpí is home to the Giant Geode of Pulpí, a beautiful volcanically formed cavern covered in transparent gypsum crystals, considered the best preserved in the world. It is therefore no surprise that is has been officially declared a Natural Place of Interest. It was discovered on the inside of an abandoned mine in El Pilar de Jaravia.
Cuevas del Almanzora is a town known for the caves that can be found there and for the river that runs through it. Located just away from the coast on the Costa Almería, it benefits from both cultural tourism and ´sun and beach´ tourism. The beach towns of Villaricos and Vera are not far at all, and the arahceological sites and famous caves are also just around the corner.
