La Caleta de Velez is a fishing town just about 45 mins from Villa Alta mobile home park, with superb beaches, an impressive marina, a large and colourful Saturday morning street market and the 18-hole Baviera Golf course.
Caleta means bay in Spanish and the name of this town literally means the bay of Velez-Malaga, the capital of the area with a traditional town centre, theatre, central hospital and water park plus a large shopping mall, equal to any in the UK.
Caleta De Velez
Caleta is unique as it has a village atmosphere but with all the amenities on hand, it is a short stroll along the promenade, which is lined with palm trees and nesting green parrots.
The fish market and harbour are attractive features of Caleta, it is the primary fishing harbour and market of Malaga Province. A total of 397 species of fish and 102 species of seafood make up the sea life eaten in this part of the world, most of these species though are concentrated in about ten different types of fish.
The Alborán Sea is the passage of water between the Atlantic and the Mediterranean and is said to renovate itself every hundred years or so. It brings a rich sea life to the bay which has the depths needed to support the sea life.
The area is rich in plankton, due to the sun that shines all year round, the different temperatures of the waters that flow into the Alborán Sea from both sides make for a rich flora, giving the fish that are caught here a special flavour that is missing from the same fish caught in other parts of the world
