Almería Live Cam

When the Andalusians behold the sunrise they look towards Almería, the most eastern land in their community, located in the southeast of Spain.

Almería is influenced by the African winds that bring heat and dryness to their land, bestowing it with a Mediterranean climate and a landscape devoid of water and trees, which added to the mountainous terrain is the cause of the deserts of Tabernas- or the highly productive fields of Nijar or El Ejido in the south.

Rather than rivers, Almería has "ramblas" -dry riverbeds that can be walked along as if they were paths-resulting from prolonged drought, and which only carry water when it rains heavily, something that happens about twenty days throughout the entire year.
