Day 15 of your road trip in Spain is your departure day. This is your chance to catch a last glimpse of Almeria before saying goodbye to this wonderful destination. If you've still got time left, we recommend doing some last-minute shopping or sightseeing.
If you're up for some more sightseeing, we recommend visiting Fuente Del Obelisco, a heritage-rich monument before you head out.
As your final day in Spain unfolds, enjoy a last-minute shopping spree in Almeria's best shopping area, Mediterráneo Centro Comercial. Enjoy finding the perfect gift or keepsake to remind you of your wonderful trip to Spain.
Before you conclude your road trip in Spain, drop by another restaurant for a last chance at a memorable dining experience in Almeria.
If you're in the mood for something new, try Restaurante. Coimbra, another premier location with a delectable menu.
You’ll then say farewell to Almeria. Drive to the airport, return your car, and take the opportunity to get some last-minute souvenirs before you board your flight home. We wish you a pleasant journey and hope you leave with many wonderful memories of your road trip in Spain!
