Photos
The Costa Calida region
Costa Calida ( warm coast) is in the south east of Spain and is an interesting , exciting coast with stunning scenery from mountains that reach down to the sea and long stretches of lazy clean sandy beaches.
It has an ideal climate of mild winters and hot but not unbearable summers. Therefore it doesn't rain very often and rain is exceptionally rare in the summer months. It would be difficult to better this climate anywhere else in Europe as the temperature is rarely below 10'c.
The region's capital Murcia can easily be reached by car or bus from the apartment in La Manga, as can the historic town Catagena.
There are also an number of smaller resorts close by Cabo de Palos a fishing harbour and Los Belones village are very pretty and popular with tourists and very close by.
La Manga del Mar Menor is a superb Mediterranean location and is a strip of land 21km long. La Manga meaning 'sleeve' sits between the Med Sea an the Mar Menor (small sea) which can be likened to a large salt water lake.
The clear water of the Mar Menor are known to be rich in minerals and in certain areas therapeutic clays can be found helpful for rheumatism, arthritis and skin complaints. Join the Spanish covering themselves in clay and baking in the sun , before rinsing off in the Menor!
The La manga Strip does not have a centre as such instead there are many small commercial areas, hotels, villas and nightspots fronting the road. The buildings are hiding miles of beautiful beaches and cafe' beach bars and marinas.
The area is a haven for golfers and has a vast number quality golf courses.It also attracts watersport lovers and everything from scuba diving to kite surfing is easy to find.
The La Manga Del Mar Menor / Los Miradores del Puerto area
Los Miradores del Puerto is 13 kilometres along the La Manga Strip and is a great location for adults and children alike. The area is full of facilities and activities and just far enough away from the bars and night-life of the marina (1.5 km) to retain an air of serenity and tranquillity.
The marina 'Puerto Tomas Maestre' is the largest marina on La Manga Strip and has some amazing yachts moored there . It is on the Mar Menor and there is a canal with a lift bridge leading to the Mediterranean.
From the terrace of the apartment you can be entertained by the boats travelling to and from the marina. If watching is not enough there are regular boat trips or private hire is available from the marina.
Tomas Maestre Marina has a fantastic selection of bars and restaurants and there are many more to be found in the opposite direction further along the strip. The area is definitely the jewel in La Manga's crown with a very cosmopolitan atmosphere that retains it's Spanish roots.The best spanish restraunts and bars can be found on the doorstep. 'Casa Paco' on the Med sea is very welcoming for tapas or full dinning.
There is a whole range of activities for all the family.. swimming, tennis , cycling, walking, jet skiing, go karting, surfing, kite surfing . Inflatable climbing walls and activities for the kids and big kids on the Mar Menor too!
A casino can be found in the town of Catagena next to a large retail park, with a range well known stores and designer boutiques.
There are markets to be found most days of the week and regular buses up and down La Manga Strip.
The ferry runs every day to Santiago de la Ribera, a small seaside town where you can find an English pub serving breakfast!
The La Manga Strip is 21 km long and has much to offer any kind of holiday maker from beaches, sports, shops, markets, walking and cycling. The Mar Menor offers warm shallow calm water of a salt water lake and as the strip is approx 300 meters wide the Mediterranean is never far away!
There is an English speaking PADDI diving shop 20 mins walk from the apartment , great for first timers and the experienced.
The local supermarket is new , large,bright and airy with lots of fresh local produce and is a few minutes walk from the apartment. A visit to the nearby bakery is a must to sit and enjoy a pastry and a coffee while the morning sun is rising is heavenly.
The Abity Spa Hotel opened in 2009 and is right next door to Los Miradores and has a rooftop restaurant serving sushi and many international dishes .There's also a large outdoor cafe-bar area on the ground floor.It's exclusive but a great facility and very relaxed.
Tomas Maesro Marina is ful of al fresco dining including Mexican, Asian, French and of course Spanish food on offer. In the summer this is a lively busy place but manages to retain its friendly relaxed style.

Flying.
The closest airports are Murcia San Javier (30 minute drive to the apartment) and Alicante ( 1 hour 40 minutes drive).There are many flights from the UK. Ryanair, Easyjet , Bmi baby and Monarch are just a few.
If you're not familiar with the airports www.skyscanner.net is a great way to check flights.
'Car Hire'
Driving to the apartment is reasonably easy and is clearly signposted to La Manga. should car hire be your choice. Both airports have many car rental companies operating from them and can be found on the airports' websites.
Sixt, Europa Rentacar, Concordrentacar and Avis are some I have used and advanced booking is advisable at busy holiday times.
Although a car is not essential it does give you greater freedom to see more of the stunning area. My tip: concordrentacar have an office 1.6 km (1 mile) from the apartment so it is possible to return the car to them after a day or so and re-book for the return journey to the airport. That way you're not paying for the car whilst relaxing at the pool or on the beach.
'Taxis'
Are situated right outside the door of both Alicante and Murcia airports.Expect to pay approx 200€ from Alicante and 90€ from Murcia to the door of the apartment.
Pre booked taxis do work out cheaper and there are a number of websites to chose from.
'The backpacker route'
Murcia San Javier airport if arriving between 10am and 6pm. It is possible to taxi , ferry and walk/ taxi again to the apartment at a cost of 20€ for 2 people. Take a taxi to the ferry mooring in 'Santiago del Ribera' which is just 10 mins and 10€ from the airport. The ferry sails every 2 hours until 6pm / 8pm in July and August. There is only one route accross the Mar Menor to Tomas Maestre Marina takes about 30 mins and costs 4€ each. From there it's a 30 min / 2 km walk to the appt. The ferry personel will also call La Manga taxis to meet you , the short joiurney will cost 10 - 15 €uros.

Guestbook for Los Miradores del Puerto
Great out of season location. We walked and cycled even managed to sunbathe on the terrace a couple of times, so we have a really nice healthy colour now. Took advantage of having a Spa hotel next door and had a 'his & hers' massage and used the spa the chill room and steam showers were fab.That was my valentine treat, he got to visit The infamous La Manga Club nearby to see where the Premier Clubs come to train.We had a good night out there too with a v. lively piano player in the bar!! Plenty of places open to feed and water us around here so we could leave the car behind in the evening. We'll be back. Regards Maria & Paul
