Almería in May
Around 19.5 °C by day, sea 18.4 °C. Too cold to swim. Quieter than the peak: 3 out of 5 against 4.
May in Almería is 19.5 °C by day and 18.4 °C in the sea. Load is 3 out of 5, and swimming starts in June, when the water reaches 20.8 °C.
Spend May on the landscape, because here it is unusual. Half an hour from the city lies the Tabernas desert, often called the only desert in Europe, where the westerns the world takes for American were filmed. East of it runs the volcanic shore of Cabo de Gata: cliffs, coves and almost no building. There is no greenery around Almería, and that is worth seeing before the move rather than after.
