The Costa Calida/Murcia region
Costa Calida means 'warm coast ' and with the region having an average of 320 days of sunshine each year the mild climate is a major attraction. The city of Murcia, 30 minutes by car, is steeped in history and has many squares and narrow streets of shops and is an intriguing place to visit. It also has a more modern aspect in that it is home to a fantastic Harley Davidson dealership! The Roman city of Cartagena is a magnificent port which hosts many fiestas and is also steeped in history. It has a lovely shopping centre and a new large retail park on the outskirts. The Calblanque Nature Reserve is situated on the Mediterranean coast and has superb golden beaches. Cabo de Palos is on the southern tip of La Manga and is famous for its fishing harbour and fish restaurants. Scuba diving trips can be taken here. Torrevieja is another attrractive city only twenty minutes away with lovely squares and a port which has recently been enlarged and modernised.
Los Alcazares area
Los Alcazares (pronounced los- alkatha-rez), is situated on the western shore of the Mar Menor, a shallow salt-water lagoon separated from the Mediterranean by a 22km strip of land known as La Manga. The Mar Menor is renowned for its health giving mineral-rich waters, which being warm and shallow are perfect for bathers and water sport enthusiasts. It has 7 km of wonderful palm-tree lined promenades with several blue flag sandy beaches and many tapas bars along the beach fronts giving it a real Spanish flavour. A ferry will take you on a half hour cruise across the Mar Menor to the La Manga strip. The old town is typically Spanish, reflecting its previous existence as a fishing village, while the new Baliniero square, only five minutes walk from the apartment, has a modern supermarket, shops, hairdressers, a bicycle hire shop and many eating places. There are 9 golf courses within a 15 minute drive and the new Roda Golf 18 hole course is only two minutes drive away as is the new Municipal golf course. There are championship courses at La Manga, about 20 minutes drive away. The area is very level making it ideal for walking and cycling. It is only 2km away from the motorway giving easy access to all the Murcia region, including La Manga, the Calblanque Nature reserve and the green hilly region around the city of Murcia. Tuesdays and Saturdays are markets days in Los Alcazares where many bargains are to be found and fresh produce from the fertile local countryside.

Superb holiday in July 06 great apartment and super area with lots to do. Hope to come again next year. D&M P
Wonderful! We really enjoyed the pool and some great days out to Murcia and Cartegena. Tapas bars in Los Alcazares very good and so cheap! J A H August 06
So warm in November we got a bit sunburnt! Pool still warm enough to swim and so were seas. Calblanque National park was superb. R. S & I.P
Lovely apartment situated in the best place - shady in the day and sunny early evening. It is also much quieter than those facing the pool. we had such a relaxing time the children did not want to come home! K.R
