The trip gets off to a flying start at the famous Playa de los Muertos, a paradise whose name derives from the ancient currents that used to wash the wreckage of shipwrecks up onto its shores. From there, we’ll look up towards the Mesa Roldán Lighthouse, perched atop an impressive volcanic dome; it is one of the tallest lighthouses in Spain and an iconic landmark that has served as a filming location for series such as Game of Thrones.

Continuing southwards, we will explore Cala Arena, where fossilised lava formations create ‘rock cathedrals’ that bear witness to Almería’s volcanic past. Before entering the village, we’ll stop in front of the Cargadero de Mineral, a gem of industrial archaeology that tells the story of the area’s mining history, before crossing Agua Amarga Bay and its iconic white houses.

Once you leave the town centre behind, the landscape becomes even wilder. We’ll pass through Cala del Sol, a spot that’s almost impossible to reach by land, to reach the jewel in the crown: Cala de Enmedio. Here, the pure white fossil sand dunes contrast with the green of the Posidonia oceanica, the plant that oxygenates our waters and keeps them so crystal-clear.

Our journey continues towards Cala del Plomo, a scene of absolute tranquillity with turquoise waters, before we reach the unique Cala Puente, where erosion has carved out whimsical shapes that seem to defy gravity. Just a short distance away, you’ll be amazed by the natural pools – cavities carved out of the volcanic rock by the sea – which offer a spectacle of calm waters and incredible reflections.

We will then sail past Cala Montoya, a secluded and peaceful spot, before reaching San Pedro Island, a small islet that juts out from the coast and serves as a haven for seabirds. Finally, we rounded off our expedition at the legendary Cala de San Pedro, the Mediterranean’s last bohemian haven, famous for its freshwater spring and the castle ruins that still stand guard over this turquoise paradise, bringing our journey to a perfect close before setting off back to the port.

Amidst tales of pirates, fascinating geology and behind-the-scenes secrets of film shoots, we’ll make strategic stops so you can take a dip and experience the park from the inside.
