Motril, Spain Cruise Port

Both a town and municipality on the Mediterranean Coast, Motril is the second largest town in the province of Granada, Spain. The Sierra Nevada Mountains stand tall behind the town and its surrounding area, creating an insulated and secure feel within the region. The countryside is well known for supplying Spanish and European markets with a vast supply of locally grown fresh fruit. Its former major cash crop, sugar cane, has been supplemented over time with fruit production, fishing, and, of course, tourism. Ideal temperatures and calm weathers helped facilitate the advancement of each. However, their biggest venture is paper. Their local industry produces around 250 tons of paper every year. Motril offers many cultural attractions including an historic quarter featuring its Arab-Spanish influences, churches and mosques, as well building with old Baroque architecture designs. There are many beaches up and down the grand coast, including a nude beach for the exhibitionist traveler.

 

  • Documenting over 1,000 years of history, the Sugarcane Museum acts as a love note to the olden days. Built over the refinery’s remains, inside the manufacturing process has been recreated for all to experience.
     
  • Venture to the Costa Tropical, a large tourist-filled region on the coast. It has some of the best sandy beaches that all look out onto the peaceful, calm waters.

  • Take in the sea and land on a chartered boat tour. Enjoy the fantastic views during the day or at night on a special sunset cruise.
