Lake Negratin

Lake Negratin is one of Andalucias largest freshwater lakes, starting by the Negratin Dam on the Guadiana Menor River, access can be achieved along the A-315, from any of the villages of Freila, Zujar or Cuevas del Campo.

A amazing colour of aquamarine/cobalt blue, depending on the time of day and the suns location, with a backdrop of rugged cliffs on its northern bank, the lake offers a scenic destination to take time out and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.  Canoeing and sailing are advertised from the El Negratin Club Nautico, a sailing club with a lake side restaurant located and signposted from the village of Cuevas del Campo.  Mount Jabalcon to the east.  Water levels are very low at the moment and the area needs rain (3/23).
