More from Alfaix:
Alfaix is a small village in Costa Almeria, Spain. Alfaix is just a short drive from the Mediterranean beaches of southeastern Spain. Apart from the holiday rental homes in the village, Alfaix is quite small, rural, and pastoral, with many villagers still raising chickens and donkeys as they have for centuries. While the town itself may have a charming rustic quality you might find described in an Ernest Hemmingway novel, the beaches nearby offer picturesque views of the ocean, beautiful weather, and attractions for everybody from young singles to families.
Apart from the various annual fiestas, Alfaix and the surround area has much to offer in terms of recreation, with swimming and golfing being two of the most popular activities in the area, along with sampling the local cuisine and a modest number of nightlife attractions. The historic city of Granada, with its famed Moorish architecture, is about a two hour drive from Alfaix, and the nearest airport is Almeria Airport, nine kilometres east of the city centre of Almeria, the capital of the Province of Almeria.
