The Capital City of the region, Murcia, set in the mountains is an unexplored treasure.On the coast can be found the ancient Roman port of Cartagena, as well as some beautiful areas of beaches and areas of wildlife interest.

Lo Pagan is situated about 15 minutes by car from the apartment and has the largest area of open-air thereaputic mud baths in Europe known as the Las Charcas de Las Salinas. They are recommended for all types of skin conditions and rheumatism. Combined with the waters of the Mar Menor which have therapeutic properties due to the contents of mineral salts and iodine and a health days visit here is recommended. Also ideal for swimming and boating.

Calblanque - a regional park is one of the few area of the Murcian coastline that still retains its stunning natural beauty with arid mountains, dunes, long sandy beaches and is home to interesting vegetation and birds e.g. Flamingo, Heron & Stork. We spent a truly beautiful day last year exploring this area and would highly recommend it.
Murcia is a university city and in its old winding streets or modern shopping areas are a wealth of lively bars, good shopping and restaurants that are vibrant with life. It is described as one of the most beautiful cities in Spain. There is a great deal of Moorish influence in the city, not least its walls. (30 minutes drive)
Just over 2 and a half hours drive away is the third largest city in Spain, Valencia. This is a stunning city to visit, with an historic old town and a fantastic new City of Arts and Culture - see some of our photos of our recent trip there. The aquarium is almost worth the trip itself!
