Garrucha roots are in the fishing industry and fishing still plays a major part in todays life in Garrucha.
The busy fishing port at Garrucha is the second busiest port on the Costa Almeria and provides the town with a large percentage of its income and employment.
Each evening at around 5pm the bustling port comes alive as the days fishing catch is auctioned off. As you would expect most of the fish and shellfish is purchased by the local restaurants that will have it on your plate that night!
Garrucha is known throughout Spain as the City of Prawns and nearly half of all the money generated from the fishing industry comes from prawns.
Outside of the port you will find a palm fringed promenade which runs in front of the whole town. The promanade offers a good place to take an evening stroll and you will find an excellent selection of cafes and restaurants along its entire length.
