The coastal fishing town of Adra is situated on the Costa Tropical in the province of Almeria in Southeast Spain. It is a peaceful tourist resort that offers a clean and spacious environment in which mature couples and discerning families can enjoy their holiday. If you're looking for an idyllic coastal resort in which to buy Spanish property then Adra could be the place for you.
Adra is blessed with a wonderful climate and spectacular sandy beaches. The town receives over 310 days of sunshine each year and delights in summertime temperatures which regularly reach above 30°celsius. During the winter, Adra remains warm, the temperature rarely dropping to below 12°c, while the giant Sierra Nevada mountain range to the north helps to shelter Adra from the cold winter winds that blow down through Central Spain.
Adra has a long and turbulent history. It was founded as long ago as the 8th century BC, and has been home to many civilisations over the years. The 16th century fortified Tower of Guainos on Adra's beachfront still stands as a reminder of the town's strategic position on the south coast of Spain.
Apartments, villas and townhouses make up the majority of Adra property available to prospective purchasers in the town. Adra property with a sea view - especially the apartments and villas that line the beachfront and harbour - are those most in demand. New Spanish property developments along the shore are also popular with investors. Further along the coast, buyers may find plots of land with a sea view on which a villa in Spain can be constructed.
