Mojacar area
Mojacar Pueblo is a picturesque sight of white washed buildings and steep winding cobbled streets perched high on a hill in the Sierra Cabrera that over looks the Mediterranean Sea. The symbol of Mojacar is the 'Indalo Man' which is the shape of a man holding an arc between his outstretched arms. It is often painted on the front of houses and is said to bring good luck. The symbol is associated with paintings found in the caves of Velez Blanco and is thought to be 4,500 years old.
With its dual appeal Mojacar's got something for everyone. Families with kids will love the miles of sandy beaches and plentiful water sports. History buffs will wallow in the shaded splendour of the old town and party animals can head for the beach bars and clubs lining the coastal road.
Don't miss the fruit and vegetable market in the old town every Wednesday and make the most of the many tapas bars and top quality restaurants on offer. A few minutes down the coast is the fishing village of Garrucha with its superb seafood gastrodome and Vera with fun-for-all-the-family water parks.
