Roquetas
de Mar has seen many civilisations since pre-historic times. A sheltered
marina offers good opportunities for water sports of all kinds as well as
an abundant stock of fish.
Close
to the marina a large complex has been built to blend in with the
environment providing a wide range of facilities including a fully equipped
tourist facility, complemented by the fantastic golf course.
The
beach is long and clean with crystal clear waters which are ideal for
snorkelling and scuba diving.
The
town is famous for the excellence of its sea food, based on traditional
seafarers dishes.
Considered
to be the market garden of Europe due to the extra early fruit and
vegetables. Easter
in Roquetas de Mar has become one of the most important festivals in the
province. The brotherhood of the Virgin de los Dolores stands out because
of the quality of its images.
