Carboneras, on the Coast east of Almería, is situated in a bay surrounded by semi-desert at the northeast edge of the Cabo de Gata Natural Park. Originally a small fishing village, it is now both a thriving industrial area and a lively hotspot for holidaymakers.

Los Muertos was presented with one of the Q certificates for quality tourism during a ceremony forming part of the activities of the International Exhibition for Tourism (FITUR), held annually in Madrid. The secluded beach is also rated one of the top five in the world for its crystal-clear water and peaceful sands, where you can relax with little fear of being undisturbed.
