The Costa Calida/Murcia region
Costa Calida means 'WARM COAST' and is situated to the south of the Costa Blanca, on the east Mediterranean coast, starting with the Province of Murcia and runs south towards Almeria. Costa Calida has breathtaking mountains, fertile agricultural land and miles of beautiful Blue Flag beaches making this a very typically un spoilt part of Spain.
The weather on the Costa Calida is the best in Spain . Winters are warmer and drier than any other part of Spain making the climate not only enjoyable but also beneficial from a health point of view. The average year round temperature is 20°C and there are approximately 320 days of sunshine per year, low humidity and very low rainfall making it a near perfect climate. The Costa Calida offers you the very best of Spain - without the expensive price tag.
What is the 'Mar Menor' ?
The Mar Menor (or 'small sea') located on the Costa Calida, is the largest natural saltwater lagoon in Europe and waters sustain temperatures of approximately 17 degrees centigrade average per year. It is a unique spot offering clean water with peaceful, tide- free bathing on pleasant shores, whatever the time of year.
The Mar Menor was created a little over 1000 years ago. Originally a safe little bay, offering shelter for even large ships, it became a natural lagoon when sediments from the sea built up on a small underwater mountain range and closed off the inlet with a sandbar. On its Western side is mainland Spain , and on its Eastern side is La Manga de Mar Menor, a strip of land, (known as The Strip), that is no more than 900 meters at its broadest point with views of the Mar Menor and Mediterranean.
La Manga Del Mar Menor / La Manga Strip area
LOS ALCAZARES
Largest settlement on the Mar Menor. Mile long promenade, large marina, and beautiful beaches. A larger centre than other towns on the coast, with many shops, restaurants, bars, and a new shopping mall with a Cinema are being built in the northern side of town.
CABO DE PALOS
Ancient fishing port and marina, with famous lighthouse. Many gourmet restaurants. Now becoming very popular with expatriates. The marine reserve of the Hormigas Isles lies a few miles offshore. Although located at the southernmost tip of the almost non stop developments starting in Torrevieja, one could scarcely tell. Cabo de Palos has every aspect of a small, isolated Mediterranean fishing village. Its small pedestrian streets and quaint shops belie a strong dependence on tourism. Unlike La Manga however, Cabo de Palos has an all-year-round economy and a most singular feature would be the Aussie Bar near the Marina .
LOS BELONES
Local villages and markets near the resort include Cabo de Palos which is 10km from the resort. This is home to a very popular Sunday market, ceramic shops and some pleasant seafood restaurants around the harbour. Los Belones is the nearest village to the resort, here there is a small fruit market every Tuesday and the Bodega de Los Belones wine cellar which offers wine tasting and an extensive range of local and national wines.
CARTAGENA
Ancient seaport and naval dockyard, where the first submarine was built in 1900 and where they are still built today. Large shopping centre, with a Corte Ingles department store due to open in 2004. Unlike Murcia which has no direct route from Torrevieja, and Alicante which is linked only by busy roads, Cartagena is easy of access and a growing commercial centre. It is the ideal centre for the Costa Calida Developments between Puerto de Mazzaron and San Pedro del Pinatar.
How to get there
Fly to Alicante or Murcia Airports, in less than half an hour you could be sipping Sangria and watching a beautiful sunset from the rooftop of the penthouse, watching multimillion pound yachts sail out of the marina as you relax after a hard day around the pools or at the beach.
