Moj\u00e1car Council has announced the imminent opening of the municipality’s first dog beach on Perulejo Beach, a project that will be completed in 2025 in response to the growing demand for public spaces adapted to pets. This initiative reinforces Moj\u00e1car’s commitment to family and sustainable tourism, consolidating its position as a pet-friendly destination in Almer\u00eda province.
\nMoj\u00e1car, with its picturesque old town, its beaches with crystal clear waters and its privileged climate, has become one of the main tourist destinations in the Levante region of Almer\u00eda. In 2024, the municipality received close to 800,000 visitors, with a notable increase in the arrival of national and international tourists. British tourism in particular has shown a special interest in the locality, representing approximately 20% of the total number of visitors, according to data from the Andaluc\u00eda Institute of Statistics and Cartography.
\nThe designation of Perulejo Beach as a dog-friendly area makes Moj\u00e1car the second municipality in the Levante region of Moj\u00e1car to offer a beach specifically for dogs, following the example of Cuevas del Almanzora.
\nThe Mayor of Moj\u00e1car, Francisco Garc\u00eda Cerd\u00e1, expressed his enthusiasm for the project: \u201cThis dog beach not only responds to a need of our residents, but also broadens our tourist offer, attracting a growing segment of visitors who travel with their pets.\u201d
\nThe opening of the dog beach will not only benefit residents, but is expected to boost the local economy. Moj\u00e1car has a wide range of accommodation, from luxury hotels to holiday apartments, many of which are already pet-friendly. The inclusion of a dog beach could increase hotel occupancy in low seasons, attracting tourists looking for pet-friendly destinations.
\nThe Costa de Almeria has stood out in recent years for its versatility and for offering tourist alternatives for all types of people. Moj\u00e1car, with its Mediterranean charm and its commitment to quality tourism, continues to add attractions to consolidate itself as a benchmark destination.
\nPerulejo Beach , with its new configuration, will not only become a gathering point for animal lovers, but also an example of how tourism development can go hand in hand with inclusion and sustainability.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
