Playa de Mónsul

If you're willing to venture a little further afield to see the beauty of the beaches, Playa de Mónsul, where Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade and The Neverending Story were filmed, is worth a visit. The beach at San José in the province of Almería is the most beautiful beach in the Cabo de Gata Natural Park. You will be greeted by fine sand, clear water, steep cliffs and an iconic rock in the middle.

It is one of the most famous beaches in Spain and one of the most popular holiday areas. In high season it will be packed with tourists.
